Corsa Garage has a full street 998 carbon setup. I’ve got the 998R tail and it’s good quality; currently being painted, hopefully have pics soon! I plan picking up the two sides, bellypan and nose around December from them.
Febur have always sent the stuff i’ve ordered from them out straight away. Usually arrives within 3 days and their quality is spot on. Email them as they’re cash happy and you should get a decent deal.
The Corsa Garage stuff looks good. I’ve been looking at their air box with detachable sides but the postage and customs to get it here from the states would just kill it. The owner says their stuff is made in Italy so would be interesting to find out who the manufacturer is.
I have the QB Carbon fairings and other parts for my 748 and the fit/finish is good enough but has very little strength. I also have an 1198 with a full set of Fullsix carbon fairings and the quality is far far superior. QB's carbon is offered in plain weave which is the same pattern as DP or MS, however the finish is not the same. Fullsix is available in many weave options and finishes. Their finished product is very very similar to DP/MS. As for as construction goes, QB parts are wet lay up carbon and Fullsix is proper multi layer pre-preg carbon. There is not really a massive price difference between the two companies either. QB might be more open to deals than a Fullsix supplier though. Corsa Garage stuff looks amazing however it is pricey. I'm sure it's now made by the company that was formed from the ashes of CM Composit - now called Speed Carbon. I can't find any info on them through the interweb, but their parts seem to be supplied through a few companies. Forza Moto and Ducati Parts Online to name a couple and not in the slightest bit cheap... Febur, Carbonvani and Bursi Evolution all do brilliant pre-preg carbon parts. An alternative is the UK based company, C-Tech Composites (support your local/national companies plug). Steve makes proper pre-preg carbon and once supplied his parts to HRC. Quite an accolade. His business is much smaller these days and more of a hobbie, but the fit and finish is amazing. He has lots and lots of parts that are available for the 748/9*6/8, 1*98, Desmo and Panigale range. There is a downside though - he is always busy and very very difficult to get a hold of. Hope that helps a wee bit.
Have you tried Speed Carbon? They have a full inventory for the 9*6/998 range and are super to deal with also. I have their full catalogue if you are interested. www.speedcarbon.com [email protected]
That’s great info that mate, thanks! Do you know if fullsix make stuff for the older Ducati’s like my 998?
No worries. Yes, they do but it's mostly limited to guards and covers from their previous life under the name of CDT (Carbon Design Team). Here's a link: https://www.fullsixcarbon.com/?page_id=54 Another one I forgot to mention is ilmberger. They used to do an entire range of parts, but seem to have trimmed down what they offer. I'm sure they can make parts to order though. https://www.ilmberger-carbon.de/CarbonE/748-916-996-998_Biposto.aspx

Did some more research and the carbon by Corsa Garage, I'm sure is made by Speed Carbon. The similarities are uncanny!! What's not similar are the prices. https://www.corsagarage.com/collections/ducati-748-998?page=2&sort_by=price-descending
yup, it is indeed speed carbon stuff. I always go direct to the manufacture, Id say only 2% of the market manufacture their own carbon, the rest imported from KIY Carbon and OYA, both from China. Great choice speed carbon.
