Carbon Atlas real carbon fiber?

[millerrh]

Hey everyone, new here and researching a potential purchase of a new S4. I'm curious if the Carbon Atlas trim option is real carbon fiber or a fake plastic look a like. I had an Acura TL with the fake stuff and it was pretty obvious. Hoping the S4 has real carbon fiber and/or looks a lot better.

It's real carbon fiber.

It's real. Not a super high-end variety, but definitely real.

Thanks guys! That was quick.

There are some aftermarket options for higher-end CF, such as oCarbon (sponsor here). Or if you buy a car that doesn't have it, you can drop around $6-800 and swap it out.

oCarbon's stuff is awesome I have a set in my B8 I love it

oCarbon makes an aftermarket set, but the price from audi is honestly very very good. It may be lower quality but it certainly won't break easily and for $500, its much cheaper than what oCarbon offers it for (around $2000).

one of my oem inserts did crack and Audi wants 750 to replace it.

We charge $600 for the same pieces that the OEM package is.

It's not low quality, just a different weave that most don't find as attractive as the RS4 style.
