Carbon fiber is hardly unusual at SEMA, but some displays make it impossible to ignore. The combined SEIBON Carbon and Anderson Composites booth was one of the places that made me stop while walking Central Hall on November 4.
Large overhead signs introduced both brands. Below them, modified cars lined up in front of a wall of exposed body panels, with red and blue display frames giving individual pieces almost as much attention as the vehicles.
The official SEMA directory lists the shared display as Seibon Carbon Anderson Composites, Central Hall booth #21455.
Carbon Fiber as the Display
What caught my attention was how openly the parts were presented. Hoods, a door and other exterior pieces were suspended behind the cars, where visitors could look at their shapes and visible carbon weave without having to peer into a crowded engine bay.
The scale matters. A small sample tells you what the material looks like; a full body panel lets you see how that texture follows a much larger surface. Under the exhibition lighting, reflections moved across the panels and the cars in front of them.
The Cars Make the Point
A black Nissan GT-R anchors the foreground in the second photograph, with other modified cars alongside it. The SEIBON windshield branding and exposed carbon surfaces tie the vehicle lineup back to the component display overhead.
For me, that side-by-side arrangement is the strongest part of the booth. You can look at a panel on its own, then shift your attention to a complete build and see how visible carbon changes the appearance of a familiar body shape.
SEIBON’s SEMA Season Finale
SEMA runs November 3–6 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. In its current second-half event schedule, SEIBON describes the show as the conclusion of its 2026 event season and an opportunity to see its products used in builds across the industry.
That context fits what is on the floor: individual components share the space with cars that give those pieces a setting.
A Broad Range of Applications
SEIBON’s catalog includes applications for enthusiast makes such as Honda, Nissan, Subaru and Toyota. Anderson Composites describes its own focus as carbon-fiber and fiberglass exterior components for late-model domestic vehicles, including hoods, trunk lids, spoilers and doors.
Why Carbon Still Works at SEMA
Exposed carbon remains easy to recognize across an aisle. The woven texture and the contrast with painted bodywork give even familiar shapes a different presence, alongside the material’s association with lightweight performance components.
The SEIBON and Anderson Composites booth makes that visual argument directly: the components are on the wall, and the cars are parked in front of them. I found myself looking back and forth between the two.
