RW Carbon vs Future Design Carbon

Re: I'm shopping for G22 aero kits, at minimum the CSL style grille, and we'll see about lips and side skirts.

In the mid-tier of aftermarket carbon fiber (a step below OEM & IND but above direct from AliExpress) - what's the consensus between RW Carbon and Future Design

I hear from both a mix of dealership folk and performance shops that RW Carbon is generally great, and there's seems to be more internet chatter and reviews about them which makes it feel like a secure company to shop from (and get good customer service). Future Design on the other hand has some weird history on the forums, companies folding in and out, there was a Washington based shop called Future Design with the same logo that hasn't posted since 2020?! This current shop linked above is now based out of Houston and has a fairly strong Instagram following and detailed photography of products. But I can't seem to find any one who has actually bought from them.

Thoughts?

I have no idea about Future Design, but I have purchased most of the major CF that is not OEM, for any/all of my BMW's from RW - such as front spoilers/trunk spoilers/diffusers/side splitters/etc

Quik shipping (as long as item is in stock), excellent packaging - never any chance for damage, Hi quality parts - perfect weave/durable long lasting clear UV coating, pretty much perfect fitment (99%) on all the items I purchased for E/F/G series.

They also offer great customer service in answering any questions or help with install

I picked up a set of mirror caps for my G20 from RW and I am more than happy with the quality. Easy to install and excellent customer service. I've since put in an order for a new trunk spoiler from them.

I bought a few carbon fiber items from Infinite Autowerks. Everything has been top notch quality. They only sell dry carbon as opposed to some of these companies that sell wet carbon. Even Adro who sells what appears to be the highest quality kits sells wet carbon for the majority of their G20 body parts.

I would argue IAW carbon is OEM level quality as BMW OE produces dry carbon fiber parts.

I did a mix of OEM carbon fiber on my new G26. OEM rear spoiler and door sills....RW Carbon front lip. I actually went to their shop and had them install. Very nice and professional group, did an excellent job on my install and the part looks fantastic - no regrets. I would totally buy from them again.

RW Carbon has great customer service. I’ve purchased front lips, rear deck lip and side skirts. Installed by them as well. Although one can argue that you could find the same or similar enough piece in Alibaba, the convenience and assurance you are buying from a reputable vendor is worth the premium price to me.
