Callaway only manufactures premium quality carbon fiber parts: cosmetically exquisite ornamental parts as well as exceptionally strong, ultra-lightweight structural members. Quality that you would expect to find in the world’s most exclusive supercars.
Only the highest quality carbon fiber polymers and a unique coating formulation are used for flawless appearance with superior gloss and unparalleled UV protection. These special materials and our proprietary “Krämer System” RTM process* allow Callaway to produce the best carbon fiber components available anywhere in the world.
Carbon Rear Spoiler

A tasteful approach to helping cancel rear lift. Our Carbon Rear Spoiler is unique. It produces 125 lbs of downforce at 200 mph. This is accomplished by having a slightly higher kick, 13mm more, than the Corvette ZR1 rear spoiler. Note also that the effective parts of the spoiler are the outer ends; the middle part remains low to minimize drag – not to mention that the center position of the spoiler is “aerodynamically hidden” by the coupe’s back light. The spoiler is a true carbon fiber skin that surrounds a foam core, all completed in one step, in closed mold tooling. Fit and finish are Class A.
Extreme speeds need an aero assist. The development of this air management device was gleaned from the knowledge gained in Callaway’s GT4 race program. Here is a genuinely effective part that is a good solution for street and track, yet stops short of an actual rear wing – the only thing that would be more effective, but perhaps overkill for road use.
“verifiable downforce – without a ‘boy racer’ wing . . .”
Ernst Woehr, Director, Callaway Competition
*The Krämer System RTM Process
Callaway uses a production method for making carbon parts that is a version of Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) developed by our partner Dirk Krämer. This system produces structural carbon skin/foam cored structural components, remarkably, in one step. We use a closed mold and inject the resin under precisely controlled condition of temperature and pressure to achieve a part integrity generally found only in medical and aerospace components. A Class A surface condition is achieved, with all hard points integral, so that the part is removed from the tool “ready to wear”. We use this part as a demonstration of the the process when potential clients visit the Callaway Carbon facility in Santa Ana, California.
“It is most satisfying to produce these parts to such a high standard, so efficiently, and in one step. I could not have imagined this was possible ten years ago. In fact . . . it wasn’t.”
