    We looked into selling their products a year ago after they contacted us and we decided not to since the images they sent us were of factory parts or just photoshop drawings. I requested a front spoiler to be sent to me so we could evaluate their quality and never received anything.

    I just got a call last week from a guy who ordered one of their Murcielago kits. He sent them money 2 months ago and is still waiting. I only know what the customer told me.

    My advice is to stick to companies with a proven track record.

    Guys, I know im arriving to the party late, i was just away on a business trip, anyhow, i have bought alot from these guys. I also was a bit wary to buy anything. I spoke to Hans, i told him exactly how I felt, I said I always buy nice things, But sometimes the deals are just to good to be true, and then when I get the Item, its complete crap, and its craftsmanship can be thrown directly into the head of the person who made it.

    In this case, Hans told me that he will ship me the item before I need to pay for it, and that tells me alot, that says that they really believe in the product.

    I purchased the F430 carbon mirrors from them, that go on ebay for over $6000.00. When i received them, I was in complete shock. They are probably better then the ones for $6000.00 just because the price is 1/3 of the original item. The weave is absolutely perfect. If you guys want to see anything from what i got from them, i will be at the Alpine Invitational car show this weekend with the Fcar, you are more then welcome to check out the items. You cant miss me, my plates are GVHOST.

    WannaFerrari, It being your second post, i would much rather get a reply from a member who has been on here for a long time... but thanks for your feedback.

    I have yet to get any real pictures from them on any of their parts. i have been waiting for about 3 weeks now. I wish they had a US dealer so someone could take a closer look at their work

    the rear vents that I purchased from them are perfect as well as the front diffuser - good weave for sure. The rear view mirrors I would pass on. I have them on but they don't have the actual parts to allow for folding so after you do it a couple of times it wears out and becomes floppy - not to mention my shop said it was hell to install! They've fixed it once with epoxy and it's fine now but I'll probably look to replace the mirrors with a better quality product down the road if it happens again.

    I was skeptical at first too but I rolled the dice and 2 of the 3 parts came over with good results.

    They have approached us to become a us dealer. I'm interested to see what they do for the F458.

    Honestly, if I were in the business I would probably engage them. I think if you were to work with them on some of the parts you are looking for you could help them improve fit and finish. I think they have in house manufacturing for any kind of mold once they have it. Mark them up 15-20% and you have an ROI that can't be beat in this crappy economy!

    I bought some custom air vents from DMC for my Ferrari F430, the quality was great.

    Recently I sold the Spyder and moved on to the Ferrari California. When I saw DMC has a carbon fiber body kit I bought it as well, will post photos when the parts arrive.
