I just executed a carbon fiber trim set purchase from Karbonius. Never was able to find correct wood trim pieces for a vert ZHP; rear arm rests proving to be difficult to find. Also, I intend for...

ZHPizza:

That is excellent information. Thank you.

After conversing with Matt @ oCarbon via emails, he stated that the images posed in this thread are 12K carbon fiber not 6K.

ZHPizza:

I appreciate the offer but oCarbon requires wood trim instead of plastic. oCarbon conveyed to me they experienced quality issues with plastic; therefore, they require wood trim for carbon...

John:

I received a reply from Alex, unfortunately for me, he sold the trim set; therefore, my search continues.

Should I continue to encounter problems buying a trim set, I will purchase the...

Thank you! I have reached out to TexasZ3 on the M5Board forum. Awaiting a reply.

Is TexaZ3 a ZHPMafia member. When i sought to message him, system indicated "no member found".

Will these fit a 2005 ZHP convertible? If yes, I am interested in purchasing. Do you have part #s for each trim piece?

Will a coupe M3 trim fit a 2005 ZHP convertible?

Will a convertible M3 trim fit the ZHP convertible?

I 've asked the Ebay seller for part #s to confirm via realoem.com, but so far no reply.

Will these fit an 05 convertible? Do you have the dash and center console?

ApexHitter:

Did you provide wood trim or did you have oCarbon purchase? What price did you pay for the trim? What was your source for the trim?

That is interesting. I wonder if my steering wheel lower trim was changed.

Does that mean that a double spoke trim will fit my steering wheel?

Does anyone have a full trim set including the steering wheel trim for sale that fits 2005 ZHP convertible? My search has just begun.

I received a $100 quote for the steering wheel trim with wood trim provided. See below picture of my steering wheel. Now the challenge is finding wood trim for an 05 convertible.

I am taking the same action because Matt said that there were different trim pieces on various years/body styles. I'll update once I get a price. I do not have a wood trim set so I either have...

oCarbon provided a reply which was similar to yours... see below

Hi Matthew,

No, the $700 would just be for the trim. You would be responsible for the cores. If you had a wood set, you could...

I just received a $700 quote from oCarbon for a convertible coupe trim set. Attached are the product examples oCarbon. I am seeking to clarify the carbon fiber type, whether the steering wheel trim...

That looks spectacular! I am awaiting explanation of material choices and prices.

What were you quoted for the (what appears to be the 8 piece trim set) set? Were you provided a turn around time...

Here is OCarbon's email response...

Hi Matthew,

We can, and we have in the past. But the E46 is a tricky one. We would need wood core trim pieces to work with, as we have run into quality...

Another carbon fiber trim source is Dinman https://www.dinmann.com/, although they do not list the E46 as a product offering. I'll contact them as well to see if they have interest in producing an...

I had identified OCarbon but I did not pursue since they did not list the E46. I'll contact them to see if interest exists for producing E46 trim.

Thanks for the lead. I contacted that member to confirm and he PM'd me stating that he did not do carbon fiber. I concur his work looks excellent.

I have reviewed the ebay products; additionally I'll look at the M3Forum member's service.


Here is a reply from Karbonius:

Hi Mattthew,
sorry for delay in back to you, the person who...

I did not realize US purchasers did not pay VAT. That change the economics, although duties do apply.

Did you directly see the Karnonius door cards as opposed to images? I am looking at the...

Good point!


At his juncture I am leaning toward the autoclave process ;therefore, Karbonius or possibly NVD Autosport. Just waiting for detailed process description from NVD Autosport. I've...

Your correct. Not certain why it did not attach since I downloaded the price list. Copy 'n paste yields the prices without pictures (see below).


Has anyone used NVD Autosport in Thailand?
