AutoTecknic carbon fiber

Anyone here have experience with AutoTecknic? From pictures online, fitment, quality, and weave looks good. I've been interested in doing their full "M Performance" kit; front lip, side skirts, and rear winglet trim.

I have dabbled a bit in the replica world with my xxii tuning front air ducts, and I've been extremely happy with those. I'm assuming I'd have the same results, maybe better, with AutoTecknic. I think it's a good sign that a vendor like iND carries them.

I'm also wondering how well their weave/shade would match my MPE rear diffuser. Thanks for any input!

I don't have any experience with their larger CF pieces and instead just the smaller ones like the mud flaps and shark fin antenna cover. The quality does seem to be pretty good and near OEM quality on those pieces.

I agree that I don't think IND would be seeking their items if they didn't fully believe in the quality of the products.

When I was shopping for that antenna cover came across your mod bargain brand that shares pics with the autoTecknic product page.

I have their rear diffuser. Fits nice, I don't like the extra screws they want you to use though.

Perfect, thanks! That's about as good as it gets when matching different manufacturers.

Good to know. I'm wondering if any of their lower trim pieces require more screws or 3M tape.

I help test fit most of AutoTecknic's product.
I did all of AutoTecknic's product on this G82 M4.
Let me know if you have any question and/or if you need a quote on them.

We use MB, IND Distribution, and FCP euro pictures if needed. With their approvals, of course.

Favorite mod by far, if you ever shop on AutoTechniks Website use my code midwest_m3 for a discount. I'm pretty sure it doesn't work for IND's stuff but other stuff I think it does!

I bought cf mirror caps and a splitter for my g20 and they look great. I highly recommend their stuff

You know what I was silent all this time...but I have to say that with my EXPERIANCE quality is B !
(Not B+ or B++)
Customer service is OK, you don't get even order conformation ! If you will order any parts from AutoTecknic make sure you getting from IND ! Because IND customer support is on GodLevel

I bought front grills for my G01 from AutoTecknic (link). 4 month later carbon grill dry out ! with the fact that my car always stored in garage under ceramics and all other babysitting stuff.
Of course I texted them.
MrGordon responded to me:

We allow 2 weeks after delivery to have the item returned or exchanged, but since this has already been installed, we will be unable to have these replaced or exchanged". Excuse me your crap is deform by it self after 4 MONTH ! I didn't expect anything from them to be honest. I was make sure they were nobody to qualify for a good spot.
So do I recommending them ?. No. Carbon fiber quality deform after several months, and this is all with careful handling

Look my video..My front splitter from 3D Design company, and the quality is OEM...even after 3 years of using it is still in prestige condition! Oem quality ! And all that AutoTecknic is china stuff with 2 weeks support




OEM or 3D Design or Alpha is companies that provide RELIBLE for years quality carbon.
Best Regards

^^^that's unfortunate. I recently pulled the trigger on their full MP style aero kit. The side skirts already showed up. Actually very happy with them. Compared to OEM cf I'd give them an 8/10.

I'm not too worried about perfection, especially at the price point, as my car collects over 50 miles a day and gets DRIVEN. I expect these lower parts to take a beating.

I'll be sure to post some pictures once I have all the parts, and we'll see how they hold up on a daily driver over the next few months.

And as always, IND is an absolute pleasure to work with. I'm confident in the quality if they sell their products.

Installed their front lip, side skirts, and rear winglets today. Fitment is spot on. Weave is about an 8/10 match to OEM.

Will get better close-up pictures when the lighting is right.
