Hey Guys,

I'm in the market for some carbon parts (hatch, hood) but I'm wondering is there a major difference between these companies other than the style of the actual product? or are they all the same when it comes to quality?


Thanks.

 

Seibon= Wet handlaid carbon fiber. Generally good fitment
Asuka/Mastergrade = Vaccum bagged. Great fitment


Asuka and Mastergrade are one in the same. Asuka is not selling anything right now as they split from mastergrade. You can purchase Mastergrade through myself or "The Tech" aka Fusion Racing. With the better quality also comes a higher price tag...about $300 more.

 

Thanks for the reply. I guess I will be contacting you soon.

 

He has a GB going the Mastergrade, I need you, lol.

 

I have both on my car. the extra $ spent on Asuka parts .. worth it.. my siebon hatch fitment is poop.

 

OT:

Do you have a rear shot of your car straight showing the bumper and the diffuser you have?

Nice combo!

 

mdracer... didn't know that diffuser worked on aftermarket bumpers. Nice job.

 

He had to do some mods to get it to "fit".

 

+1

 

Question, would I have to use my plastic panels from my OEM hatch? How does the reverse side look, is is louder?

 

The stock panels really don't fit with the new hatch.

The reverse side is all black. It will be louder of course due to less dampening from the stock panels and the metal hatch. You will also have more noise if you use lexan instead of stock glass.

 

Thanks for the input.

Where can you buy asuka parts?

 

You can't. They no longer make parts. There is only Mastergrade and Seibon right now.

 

buy a mastergrade hatch, best deal you can get during the GB going on right now. Look in the marketplace in the exterior section you will find it.
