For committed OEM lines with clear order volume, tooling cost can be amortized into the unit price or developed free of charge under agreed terms — the case shown used this route. For first-run or low-volume OEM projects, tooling is billed separately and may be rebated against future orders once a defined volume threshold is reached. We quote both options in writing.

Client drawings, scans and tooling are stored under project IDs, not shared across customers. Exclusive production — a part made only for your brand and not sold to anyone else — is contractually available on qualified OEM projects. The exclusivity scope and duration are written into the agreement, not left to verbal assurance.

A 50-set OEM aero kit comparable to this case typically runs 5–8 weeks from approved sample to ready-to-ship. Split batches are supported and often recommended — for example 20 + 30 with a 3-week gap — so the customer can start selling while the second batch finishes. Expedited production is possible on a surcharge, subject to current line load.

Standard QC report covers visual inspection (weave, surface, clear coat), dimensional check on key mounting points, and fitment verification against the approved sample. Reports can be issued under your brand name, with your PO and part numbers — not ours — so they drop straight into your own QA file.

Once a first project ships clean, follow-on orders are normally faster because tooling and inspection references already exist — typical repeat-order lead time drops 20–30%. Long-term supply agreements (12-month or 24-month volume commitments with locked pricing) are available for OEM customers who have completed at least one successful project.
