Default Does anyone have any experience with Quinten Racing Carbon Fiber?

Has anyone purchased the real Carbon Fiber Splitter and Side Skirts from Quinten Racing? They have no posts on their FaceBook page since December of 2020. Are they legitimate and still in business?
Because 0h man, I am so pleased to see a real carbon fiber splitter and side skirts without the big ugly (too me) winglets. Has anyone received these and is the quality and finish really nice? I dislike ordering something sight unseen and I only want them on my upcoming 2022 HTC if they are really nice quality and look really nice.

Thanks,

-Gaz

Great product! I purchased the carbon flash finish. 100% carbon fiber construction painted carbon flash. Fit and finish excellent! The only negative it took 7 weeks to get them.

Anderson Composites and Atomic 6 Carbon both make wingless side skirts in visible carbon fiber. The Anderson product has a relatively straight edge on the outside whereas the Atomic 6 product has a bit of an angle to it towards the rear similar to the Quinten product you are considering. The Atomic 6 appear to blend at the back a bit more than the Quinten side skirt does for whatever that is worth to you. Atomic 6 also makes a wingless front splitter and replicates the factory "v" pattern of the carbon layup at the center of the splitter. Decisions, decisons!

Update; I sent them a message and got this reply from them FYI incase others are interested in their products;

"Hello Garrick, yes we are still in business! We have not been posting because we are already very busy and backed up with orders. Haven’t exactly needed to advertise. I guess we should post something for your awareness though. Thanks for pointing that out. I do want to give you a heads up we do have a back log right now. Supply chain issues are causing delays from many areas of production. Let me know if I can help with anything else."

Matt of Quinten returned my call to explain the same. My order was placed on 3/24 for the painted carbon flash, he was expecting that my order would ship by the end of this week. I did appreciate he reached out to me.

Anyone else have any feedback, especially if you ordered the exposed carbon fiber from them?

I have the Quinten Racing splitter and skirts. The quality is really good. I went with the carbon flash paint finish to match the accents on the car.
it’s a perfect match. The installation was super easy. Splitter splitter holes were pre-drilled and they lined up perfectly with the factory bolt sightings.
it took me longer to jack up the car then it did to install the side skirts. They also fit perfectly.

I preferred the flat skirts without the winglets.
I like how they flare out at the back giving the appearance of a wider rear end.
if you are looking for a side of side skirts without the winglets I highly recommend Quinton Racing.

Do the Quinten skirts use the front mounting points that the OEM splash guards use or just the rear factory mounting points?

Time frame order to arrival? I ordered months ago and Matt with Quinten emailed me 1st week of Nov to say they'd be shipped in "a couple of weeks" but it's nearing mid December and no tracking info or anything. I've emailed twice since the beginning of Nov and gotten no response. He was super nice about doing a military discount but since then it's been radio silence.

I have their side skirts. Ordered them along with the splitter December 5, 2020 and they didn’t arrive until close to Valentine’s Day 2021. I ended up selling the splitter to a friend but have the skirts on and running ACS splitter. Took a while to get Quinten stuff and they sent updates of apologies but it was all good since the car was parked for the winter during the wait.
I always dealt with Matt and this was his email:
reply@crm.wix.com


The reason I liked Quinten Racing side skirts was because they didn’t have the winglet that everyone else was mimicking from GM and theirs reminded me of the C7 Z06 skirts the way they flowed with the contour of the lower body.

I talked to Matt before,..I just ordered their side skirts in Carbon fiber while they were having their holiday sale...They should be coming sometime in January...I like the look of them and how they angled out before the back wheel...

I would not expect them in Jan. I ordered mine 2.5 months ago and they haven't shipped yet. Matt finally answered my email and said shipping soon, but he said that Nov 2nd so...
