Default ilmberger and warranty

I'm considering purchasing many CF pieces from ilmberger. However, in the past I have had CF parts turn yellow and start to bubble. Now if this were to happen, do they provide a warranty and if they do, how long?

from Ilmberger of Germany. You want Carbon Fiber? Are we not men? The Ilmberger carbon fiber cloth glistens under the crystal clear poured resin topcoat giving it a deep appearance. Even the edge quality makes a fluid transition onto the bodywork. Ilmberger Carbon Fiber is as light as a feather and offers a deep gloss finish for the ultimate in weight loss and good looks. Worthy of the S1000RR. Quality German craftsmanship.Since 1990 Ilmberger has been producing high-quality carbon fiber products, equaling OEM quality and sold through OEM accessory catalogs. Used by top international racers, Ilmberger products are the highest quality carbon fiber we have found. In case you are curious, the Carbon Fiber pattern of Ilmberger products is an exact match for the patterns of both Pack Parts and ZTechnik Carbon Fiber products so there is no issue with mixing and matching.

They Clear coat all the Fiber so no yellowing from the Sun. I have a few pieces on the bike going to get lowers when I get a full System on Bike.

Your best bet is to contact Julius Ilmberger directly (owner). He's a great guy, very helpful, and in my experience always willing to go the extra step. His products are of great quality. He's a racer himself (a fast one too ), so he certainly understands and is around the superbike industry A LOT! He races an S1000RR.

Shoot him an e-mail --> info@Ilmberger-Carbon.de
