Dealer Tiers & Financials

1) Definitions & Pricing Basis

• 
  MSRP / MAP: public price / minimum advertised price.
  
• 
  DBP (Dealer Buy Price): your actual buy price.
  
• 
  Wholesale discount (vs MSRP): used to compute DBP → DBP = MSRP × (1 − discount%).
  
• 
  Quarterly rebate: % granted after the quarter on compliant receivables (parallel to discount).
  
• 
  Referral reward: for D2C + Installer / Lead Pass flows when attribution is established; separate from dealer pricing.
  

2) Tiers & Non-Price Benefits (no hard numbers on this page)

Evaluation & progression

Quarterly rolling review across sell-through/attribution, MAP compliance, after-sales closure, and content participation to decide maintain / upgrade / remediate. Results shared by email & WhatsApp.

Violations (MAP breaks, unresolved after-sales delays, repeated install issues) may result in rebate suspension / downgrade / supply pause; restored upon passing remediation.

Materials & Process Principles (Pre-preg Dry Carbon vs Wet Lay-up)

Pre-preg Dry Carbon (Metal Tooling)

Process: Pre-impregnated fibres cured under controlled temperature and pressure (hot press or equivalent). Resin/fibre ratio and cure curve are repeatable, delivering higher dimensional and surface consistency.

Tooling systems:

• Tool-steel die: high hardness and thermal stability, low CTE and high rigidity. Over long runs it offers the highest fitment ceiling and contour fidelity. Due to the high tooling cost, unit buy-prices are typically higher — ideal for customers who demand top fitment and finish.
  Purchasing note: For large panels and critical exterior pieces (bonnet, boot lid, long aero), tool-steel is the safest path for “bolt-on and right”.
• Aluminium tooling: fast heat transfer, shorter tool-build time and friendlier cost. Within a well-managed service life, fitment remains very high. Multiple heat cycles and demoulds can introduce very small cumulative shape drift, so long-term tolerances are slightly wider than tool-steel (more noticeable on long/large curvature parts).
  Purchasing note: For small/medium non-safety exterior pieces, high-grade aluminium tools are usually sufficient; use tool-steel for extreme fitment on long parts.

Packing & transport: Pre-preg is less sensitive in transit but still requires proper support. We ship with professional protection by default (foam, corner guards, fixed supports and spec boxes) to minimise shipping damage and secondary deformation.
Purchasing note: Items can go straight to shelf check; store large parts on the provided supports to avoid long-term stress.

Wet Lay-up (Resin/Composite Tooling)

Process: Manual lay-up and on-site resin mixing, ambient/low-temp cure. Resin/fibre ratio, de-aeration and lay-up tension depend heavily on operator skill. Moulds are usually resin/GRP/composites with lower rigidity and thermal stability, limited reuse life and a higher risk of geometry drift.

Market reality: Quality is highly uneven; many makers avoid heavy tooling investment. Achieving stable wet lay-up output requires strict incoming/process checks and long-term supplier screening.
Purchasing note: If budget forces wet lay-up, include installation time and expectation management in the total cost, and prefer validated batches.

Usage advice: For “bolt-on fitment + high mirror consistency”, do not substitute dry with wet — especially for large or long parts (bonnet, boot lid, long skirts).
Purchasing note: Wet lay-up can be fine for small decorative pieces (with clear expectations); large parts should prioritise dry carbon.

3) Wholesale Economics (ranges only; specifics in your quarterly list)

• Standing dealer discount (vs MSRP):
  
  
  Silver: 22%–25% off MSRP (category-dependent)
  
  
  Gold: 28%–32% off MSRP (category-dependent)
  
  
  
• Quarterly rebate (on compliant receivables):
  
  
  Silver: 1%–2%
  
  
  Gold: 2%–4%
  
  
  
• Payment terms (by approval):
  
  
  Silver: Prepay / Net 7–15
  
  
  Gold: Net 15–30
  
  
  
• Currencies & FX: USD$ / AUD$ supported. AUD$ follows CarbonXtreme’s quarterly FX baseline (public examples below are indicative only).
  

4) Referral Rewards (separate from dealer pricing)

For D2C + Installer and Lead Pass when attribution is established (negotiable where stated):

• USD$0–999: USD$60 / AUD$92 fixed (negotiable)
  
• USD$1,000–1,999: 3% (cap USD$90 / AUD$138) (negotiable)
  
• USD$2,000+: 2% (cap USD$120 / AUD$184) (negotiable)
  

Attribution qualifies if any of: shop code/UTM used; customer selects the shop at checkout (when enabled); 7-day post-match filed and verified. Priority: code/UTM > checkout selection > 7-day post-match. One reward per order.

Organic CarbonXtreme orders without attribution: no referral reward; the shop still keeps 100% of install labor.

Reconciliation: monthly attributed-orders statement; payout on a fixed date the following month.

5) Sample Margin Math (illustrative; not a quote)

Examples shown in USD$ / AUD$ using 1 USD ≈ 1.53 AUD (rounded; FX baseline is set quarterly).

• Example A (small item) — MSRP USD$799 / ~AUD$1,222
  
  
  Silver 22%: DBP ≈ USD$623 → gross on product ≈ USD$176; install labor billed separately (100% to shop).
  
  
  Gold 30%: DBP ≈ USD$559 → gross ≈ USD$240.
  
  
  
• Example B (mid item) — MSRP USD$1,499 / ~AUD$2,294
  
  
  Silver 24%: DBP ≈ USD$1,139 → gross ≈ USD$360; potential 1%–2% quarterly rebate ≈ USD$11–22.
  
  
  Gold 30%: DBP ≈ USD$1,049 → gross ≈ USD$450; potential 2%–4% rebate ≈ USD$21–42.
  
  
  
• Example C (large item) — MSRP USD$2,400 / ~AUD$3,672
  
  
  Silver 25%: DBP ≈ USD$1,800 → gross ≈ USD$600.
  
  
  Gold 32%: DBP ≈ USD$1,632 → gross ≈ USD$768.
  
  
  

Notes: Examples exclude freight/tax/labor. Final numbers follow the order quote and agreed Incoterms. AU partners may settle in AUD$ per CarbonXtreme’s quarterly FX baseline.

6) MAP & Price Discipline

• MAP is enforced. No channel may go below CarbonXtreme’s MAP.
  
• Violations: first warning → rebate suspension → supply pause; repeated cases terminate cooperation.
  
• Monitoring: routine price checks online/offline with partners to keep premium positioning and healthy margins.
  

7) Apply, Review & Get Your Price List

1. Submit docs: business license/shop profile, specialist models/projects, portfolio links, commercial & billing details.
   
2. Initial review (3–5 business days). Upon approval, you’ll receive the quarterly dealer price list (PDF/CSV, watermarked, 30-day validity) and your rebate/terms frame.
   
3. (Optional) Provisional Trade Rate during review for urgent purchases if documents are filed.
   
4. Quarterly review to maintain/upgrade/remediate; results shared by email & WhatsApp.
   

8) How this relates to the Installer Program

• Paths do not stack:
  
  
  D2C + Installer / Lead Pass → referral reward
  
  
  Dealer purchase → standing dealer discount + quarterly rebate/terms
  
  
  
• Install labor is always 100% the shop’s revenue.
