TOP QUALITY GERMAN ENGINEERING
EXCELLENT FIT AND FINISH
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, from the material itself, to the clear coat, to the way Ilmberger
stands behind each product. We’re very proud to bring the full line of Ilmberger
products to the U.S. Whether you’re going racing, want to lose a few ounces, or
are improving the appearance of your machine, Ilmberger carbon fiber is the best
you can buy!
Ilmberger carbon fiber is TUV/ABE approved. What does a European standard mean
to us here in the U.S.? It means that Ilmberger carbon fiber is the highest
quality, and fits the best. Ilmberger is also the only carbon fiber manufacturer
to use Kunststoffbeschichtet, or plastic powder coating, on their parts. This
finish is much more resistant to scratching than standard clear-coat finishes,
blocks UV rays that can damage your carbon fiber over time, is a better base for
painting, and improves the appearance of each part. Our parts are produced using
autoclaves and state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques like those used in
Formula 1.
Original equipment on some top of the line MV Agusta, Aprilia, and Ducati
machines. Beware of imitations, there is only one Ilmberger and we are your
source for the real thing!
Q:
What's the Difference between Ilmberger STREET
Carbon Fiber and RACE Carbon Fiber..? And Why is there a Price
Difference.?
A:
The STREET Carbon, is held to a Higher Standard of Quality then Race Carbon.
In Europe they have TUV Certification (similar to our D.O.T.) The Street Carbon
Parts are TUV Approved. This means, it's stronger, last longer, has more
coatings of protection, and nearly flawless quality.
The Race Carbon is made for Racing. The process to make Race Carbon
costs less, because there are less steps involved, and less coatings, and it's
quicker and easier to make. The Race parts sometimes have flaws or blems,
because they are made for race, so it's not as important to have a perfect
piece. They are also NOT TUV approved, like the Street Carbon Fiber Parts
are.
The STREET Carbon Parts, are nearly Flawless, last longer, stronger, and look
better.
The Price difference is because the Race Parts cost less to make, so the prices
are slightly less.

Certified Carbon Fiber)
