Eyewear, cut from a real car.

The car

Garnet Red Metallic. 1986. Salvage title. Most people saw scrap — we saw a roofline worth saving and a beltline worth tracing. The body became frames.

Why "Numbers Matching"

In classic car collecting, "numbers matching" is the gold standard — chassis and engine serials aligned, exactly how the factory built it. It's the purest form of provenance. We carry that same idea into eyewear: each frame is sourced from a specific car. No generic claims. No vague "eco-friendly." Real steel. Real car.

The manufacturing

Hand-cut in Lake Forest, California at Camisasca Automotive — a third-generation custom metal shop. 2.0mm automotive-grade steel, pulled from the donor car's body panels. Laser-cut. Deburred. Line-grain finish. Powder-coated. California start to California finish.

The founders

Numbers / Matching was founded by Adam Kaslikowski and Matt Schwartz — two car people who wanted to make something that carried the weight of real provenance. Not a keychain. Not a bottle opener. Eyewear, because it sits on your face. It's a statement. It deserves the gravity of the steel it's cut from.
