Thanks for your info tho but we try to gather as much information as we can. Afterall, they try to convince us by giving exchange and other stuffs. I'm just like you but try to give them a chance to build better pieces day by day

Yeah. I'm glad for you too. There were a couple pieces that were ok. But you know what they say about broken clocks.

Glad you got the good one. It's unique with its 3 fins design but lika HondaGoneRogue said, they pretty much suck at quality control

we are discussing iCarbon, not boca (unless if they are the same) I had iCarbon stuff and had no issues. My trunk was an extremely nice piece. Good weave and a near perfect fit.

I know they are using same pictures with iCarbon but we'll never know until someone really buys it and installs it. Just a head up, their price seem a bit high if it's the same with one of the diffuser sellers on ebay, because I read one company in HK or China that distributes the same stuffs with Boca and MCF sells it for lower price and accept best offer

Yes. MCF guarantees fitment for these parts, and if for some reason your specific part does not fit, MCF will refund your money back.

iCarbon DID sell parts from Boca Design, however, iCarbon could very well have sold parts from other manufacturers of lesser quality parts than Boca Design. We cannot speak for other manufacturers besides Boca Design, which is the only manufacturer that MCF associates with. Chances are if the culprit parts you speak of are from "FleaBay", then they should be treated with extreme caution anyhow. These quality MCF guaranteed parts are not available through eBay.

For the sake of presenting more pictures as requested by the community, we provided pictures of Boca Design products from other vendors, but Boca is STILL the guaranteed manufacturer of the high quality parts presented with promise of a full refund if by chance your part does not fit.

To alleviate any more confusion, MCF will refrain from providing anymore pictures with the iCarbon logo on them. The parts are competitively priced for their quality and availability in the US. Cheaper prices via sources like eBay are not MCF supplied, and likely knock-offs from less quality manufacturers, unlike Boca Design.

My take on this thread is that Boca Design makes ALL carbon fiber parts sold by any company in the world.

This thread has taken off but gotten nowhere. Obviously lots of interest but nobody wants to be the first to take a plunge and as the parts are pricey with tons of suspicions, I say we vote on who should take one for the team to get things rolling....I nominate HGR. :-) Lol.

Many of us were asking so much questions but yet no one really pull the trigger including me since I'm still not convince by them. HGR has awesome idea about F-16, lol

Just open boca design website and found out one of the dealerships is from Hongkong and indeed this dealership sells items on ebay as well. Please clarify this one.
