Refer me to a CF manufacturer/vendor. Need a good OEM style CF Spolier
I have tried a few vendors so far for an OEM style CF spoiler. Some were CF overlay, some had manufacturing defects in the CF weave, etc. Not happy with them...
Can no one make a good quality solid CF spoiler, OEM style for the C63 sedan?
Anyone know of any quality vendors? I don't want crap...

I purchased one from JL Motoring and like it very much. It's an overlay, but once installed, looks as if its 100% CF. The weave is consistent as well.

Thanks. Looks pretty good from the pics.
How was the weave?
Was it a deep black CF or a faded gray CF?
Was tape supplied
I have tried everything from a shop in England to local and returned them all because I am dissatisfied with how awful they were made, with manufacturing defects and errors in the weave lay down.

I have made a few purchases with JBSPEED in the past and can honestly say they sell good stuff. My products had good weave pattern and the gel coat was applied flawlessly.
I had their stuff on my cars for a number of years with zero yellowing. Fitment was spot on and I was completely satisfied with my purchase.
Having said that, the bulk of the "knock-off" stuff all comes from the same place from what I understand. The difference is the vendor, are they checking their items for defects and or fitment issues before they leave their place of business? Will they stand behind a product that doesn't suit the buyer's expectations?

I agree with the "turning yellow" as you get what you pay for.
Also, it's EXACTLY correct, the Chinese made ones that are found on ebay and sold by two specific vendors on this site all come from the same manufacturer and they are just rebranded. We all know that but think because it has another name like Ninja Carbon Fiber or Supersonic Carbon Fiber that it's any different or any better than the other. I am not going to name names but lets not be fooled.
I am hoping to find a well crafted, pure CF quality finished product. So far everything I have ordered and saw in person have disappointed me as to quality and make.

Mode Carbon does not make a OEM type spolier for 2010 Style C63 Sedan.
Euroteck does and I will look into it. Anybody have one and have any thoughts as to fit and finish?
