I know these arnt car parts but figured its car guy related. If it's against the forum rules feel free to remove.


I make carbonfiber rings in my spare time and thought I'd try to sell off a few.
They are cut from 1/4 or 1/2 block sanded shaped and polished. I can make any size from 5-14 in a few different shapes.


Prices are: $50 for 1/4 round
$55 for 1/4 oct
$65 for 1/2 round
$70 for 1/2 oct






Here's a few I've made do far.

Do you hake the round version in 1/4"? I've been wanting an alternative to my wedding ring getting beat up, as it has over the years.

I do aircraft structural repair. We just bought 26 new helicopters the have a lot of carbon structure.

The blocks I use for rings I buy from a supplier.
The sheets for the letters I lay up myself.

Hopefully soon for the letters. I will be doing a few LS7 and a bunch of LSX. I do have the Xs in red but not sure how there going to turn out, it's a different material and it dosent cut very well.

I received my ring today and it is awesome! Perfect fit! I used that chart that I provided a link for on page 1 - I used a caliper and measured my ring to get the fit I wanted.

I am going to order another one soon - probably go for a 3/8" and 1/2" wide version with one of the different cf patterns.

KILLER RINGS - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Ls1velle
02-11-2015, 05:12 PM
Thanks g-machine, glad your happy with the ring. Any time your ready let me know and I'll get another one ready. I have some new carbon coming in next week. I'll get a pic up as soon as I get a sample ring made.

Do you have a pic of the current material pattern? I want a round 3/8" but I just want to see what the pattern is. You said you were getting a new one soon.

Ls1velle
02-21-2015, 06:39 AM
The new pattern is a cross cut so you get 2 patterns on the same ring.

Glad you like it. I dont think you will see to many in that pattern my supplier said the piece i have was only the second block he has ever had. Not to much for care i beat the crap out off mine. You can give it a 600 grit touch up if it gets scuffed up to much.

Just checking in on this. The carbon over titanium has held up amazingly well. Worn every day and still looks brand new. Great option for guys wanting a custom width and material that nobody else has.
