So all I do is take out the oem parts send to ovation and they will send me back carbon fiber trim? I wonder if he can order oem parts so I can keep the wood if I were to sell car in future. Thanks looks like great work
FWIW DB Carbon is good stuff. Over the past year I have bought 3 times from them for my 997. I replaced all the factory plastic pieces with Carbon Fiber (center console tunnel, door handles, overhead console, chrono housing, door triangles, ignition surround, entry sills). Delivery usually took a few weeks as they make most pieces to order. Communication was great. It is not 100% match to the weave on the Porsche carbon fiber pieces, but you'd only notice if they are side by side and look VERY closely. I have oem CF shifter and brake handle and they are nearly identical. Here are some pictures.
Reviews for Ocarbon shakey at the least on Yelp, thoughts?
I really dont want to send my trim and not get it back in a reasonable time.
read the reviews on Yelp
the Db Carbon customer service over the phone and email has been great, plus they use OEM parts and make the carbon fiber peices without sending my pieces to them
yes price is higher(although i didnt get a price from Ocarbon yet), i wonder if O carbon can do the same, order the parts and see what they can do since they are in the US

There should be some core exchange program where they have one ready to ship and you send them your current one. Who wants to send in their parts and wait so long without a trim on their car? For many of us, this is our daily driver... can't go driving around with no trim
Core exchange if volume is high. Mine was the first amg e class matt did. I wanted to save money. I drove around with missing bits. Big wow. Options are out there. To each their own.
Looking to replace current trim. Is it worth buying from MB or are there company's out there that make it
Thank you

I went with the open pore ash wood, and there are companies out there that you can replace it with however I would do it with MB especially on a E63

I may be leaning towards db carbon. They don't need my parts and will use Oem mb parts.
They are in Germany and uses exact same carbon as amg. Pm if you would like to do a group purchase

After you can send them your oem parts , they will give you money for it.
I found a local vinyl installer who can wrap the interior trim pieces in this new carbon fiber vinyl that has more depth (looks just like the real stuff). He removes all of the trim in the car and wraps it.
Here's an example of it applied on a BMW (this is not my guys work):
