Carbon Tank Trim Supplier like OEM

687 Views 6 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  omasou
Who else makes carbon tank trim like OEM that uses the OEM trim pieces? The aftermarket ones I can find do not use the trim. I was just looking for a cheaper option (I am just concerned on looks not the weight savings).

Here are examples:

Shoe Outdoor shoe Bag Font Electric blue


Cutout for OEM trim piece

Bag Electric blue Musical instrument accessory Cable Font


No cutout for OEM trim piece.

I have RPM Carbon pieces in matte carbon, with the provisions for inserting the OEM side trim. I like them. I had to drill out one hole to accomodate the bolt shoulder, but otherwise the fit and finish is good.

Thanks for all the replies! I ended up going with the OEM ones that I found for $760 for the pair, a bit more than the RPM which I may use for the other parts I want to buy.

I love the matte carbon, matches my car's interior. I started resarching Ilmberger matte options but didn't see all the pieces listed, and dropped the idea.

Looks really nice!
