How it's made

Inside the autoclave

Real carbon is a craft — we make it dry and wet. Here's how our dry-carbon parts are built, and how to tell genuine carbon from fake overlay film.

01

3D scan & design

The factory part is digitised to 0.05mm so the carbon matches every curve.

02

Pre-preg lay-up

Aerospace 2×2 twill pre-preg is hand-laid into a CNC aluminium mould, layer by layer.

03

Autoclave cure

Cured at 130°C under 6-bar pressure for 4 hours — void-free, the step cheap parts skip.

04

Trim, sand & QC

Edges CNC-trimmed, surface hand-sanded to 2000-grit, fitment checked on a reference car.

05

UV clear & ship

Six layers of UV-stable lacquer, photo inspection, then DHL worldwide.

Dry & wet carbon — vs fake overlay

We make both dry and wet carbon — both are 100% genuine. Here's the difference, and the overlay film to watch out for.

Dry carbon Drago

  • Pre-preg + autoclave. Resin pre-impregnated, cured under heat & pressure.
  • Void-free & light. ~40% lighter than OEM, maximum stiffness.
  • Structural. Real aero parts, motorsport-grade.
  • Deep, even weave — UV-stable, won't yellow.

Wet-laid carbon Drago

  • Genuine carbon fibre, hand-laid by our team.
  • More affordable than dry — the same real weave.
  • Ideal for trim & cosmetic parts.
  • Deep gloss finish, made to your chassis.

Carbon "overlay" / hydro-dip

  • A carbon-look film over plastic.
  • No structural carbon at all.
  • Peels, bubbles, fades in the sun.
  • The "carbon" in most cheap listings.
