I asked the same thing but was ignoredhow about some mesh? Looks unfinished
I think you might be. lawl. I like it, reminds of the Buddy Club II kit for other cars, minus foglight housings. I just can't imagine doing anything to the front since I already have clearance issues with the OEM front bumper on stock suspension.am i the only one who doesn't like it??

dont use fiberglas it will crack after 1 week
Fiberglass is a relatively strong material under normal circumstances. It is made from plastic resin and synthetic fiber. You can guard your fiberglass body kit against cracks and tears by minimizing its direct exposure to undue stress. The strength of this material depends on the methods employed by the manufacturers to mold it.
Ordinarily, fiberglass is very good material for a body kit. But unlike metal, it can easily be damaged, and it also fatigues over time, leading to cracks. Professional body work experts should be able do repairs, but there are many instructional kits available as well. However, if youre doing it yourself, be careful. Fiberglass can cause some serious eye and skin irritation. And unlike metal, it can particulate, or separate into its component fibers, which can very quickly become very difficult to control, let alone repair.
If you live in an area that has snow or rough roads, you may choose to select urethane because of its endurance. If you live in an area where the roads are smooth and the weather is decent, then fiberglass can be used. Just as metal bodywork rusts, fiberglass cracks under such adverse weather conditions.
Because fiberglass can be molded, there are several outlandish designs out youll find on the market. A normal wing and body kit combo may cause around $350 to $800, or more. Customs designs are also available, at a much more exhorbitant price, since custom designs are by definition done one at a time, with a minimum of automation and a maximum of human handiwork.
Why is that? Do Corvettes have that problem?
Picture of lip installed, please maybe I am interested. Does it function or just look cool? Thanks Womg.. so hot. I might have to sell my lip for this one when it comes out. Anymore pics Derrick?
i think people just assume it's going to crack because when they had their sick ass eagle talon with that dope body kit spray painted, it cracked. (rockon)
no offense.
Keep us posted with updates and details, Corksport. we will need to find an alternative way to mount foglights and a mesh or grille that still looks decent with my top mount ic. With the Front mount the car looks quite aggressive. Controlo and or phillyb, how about weight comparison between the polyuthing and fglass or fb
Is it just me or does this bumper look like the Autoexe with some minor touches made to it ???
