I like the feel. They are not fully smooth so they grab well. Was at dealer for something else so they just threw them on.

Just the way I would like to follow.
Got OEM carbon parts except the door panels for now.
How was the shipping??
I am afraid it would bend and crack while shipping.
Looking for alcantara A and Bs too and possibly few leather products from exclusive parts (center, side speaker grilles and center console lid).
Nice work!

How was the shipping??

DB Carbon uses DHL, so where you are will dictate your experience with them. They are awful in my area (DFW). DHL once claimed they could not locate my office building, a well-known 56 story building in downtown Dallas. If you have seen an aerial shot of Dallas from a a sporting event, you have seen it. Another time, a DHL package arrived smelling of the sea, complete with sand and soggy contents. My parts for the carbon fiber order sat over at DFW Airport for about a week and then DHL hired a contractor to deliver them. But hey they got here. There was a small import duty as well.

Now then, as for DB Carbon, I have nothing but good things to say about them. Their products are great and the pieces they sent me are very high quality. They match the factory carbon perfectly. They are very fairly priced and Daniel is great to deal with. I just wished they used FedEx.

If you scroll up, I posted pics a while ago

Shipping was great. DHL shipped from Germany and parts arrived 3 days later in perfect condition. I have purchased twice from DB Carbon and both times everything arrived well packed and very quickly.

i have some 991.2 alcantara A-pilllars if you’re interested. I didn’t know the .1 and .2 ones were different and bought the wrong ones at first.

So these fit over existing pats? from pictures looks stock, cant tell its a cover. Does it look that good in reality?
I've never seen a cover kit that didn't look like it was glued on top.

^^^ I believe it’s just the ones on the door that are covers. The rest of the parts are replaced.

The only parts the glue on are the door panel trims. All the other parts are OEM trim that have been wrapped in carbon fiber.
