PROCESS 01

Surface preparation

The component surface is prepared for the approved coating or finish system; operations vary with component condition and specification.

PROCESS 02

Gloss, matte, satin & painted finishes

The selected surface system controls the final visual direction. Exposed-carbon and painted areas should be defined before production approval.

PROCESS 03

Custom colored carbon

Projects can define a custom visual direction such as red carbon where the selected material and finish system support it. Adjacent components should be specified together when visual continuity matters.

Before production

Fitment is part of the carbon-fiber specification.

The vehicle name alone is not enough for a custom composite order. The exact interfaces, finish direction and supplied component schedule should be confirmed before production.

OWNSILENT product scope

Customer-facing category, programme and supplied component definition.

OWNSILENT project image

Existing project or manufacturing media already held in the OWNSILENT library.

Visual description

A description of what is visibly shown without claiming an unsupported manufacturing step.

Fitment confirmation

Vehicle-specific details that require VIN, photos, mounting or interface review.

VIN & exact vehicle

Confirm model year, market specification, body style and current exterior configuration.

Current vehicle photos

Front, side, rear and the exact component area should be documented before quotation.

Material & finish

Dry carbon, forged-carbon appearance, exposed weave, painted zones and clear finish must be defined.

Interfaces

Confirm sensors, cameras, lamps, grilles, exhaust outlets, undertrays and adjacent panels.

Mounting & trial fit

Brackets, hardware, panel gaps and left/right alignment should be reviewed before final finishing.

Approved supplied scope

The final component schedule should state each supplied panel, trim piece, mesh, bracket and hardware item.
