I guess if I don't get one used I'll have to get the fiberglass one. I've always been scared of a fiberglass lip cracking, but $300 for a carbon fiber lip isn't in my budget.

JDM, if you're making a carbon fiber veilside lip for the '06 I'll purchase it a.s.a.p.

I hate to badger you with more questions, but how is this in comparison to urethane, raw plastic, and such? Also how much would this run? Like said before I'm weary of fiberglass and I'm not really wanting to drop the extra cash for carbon fiber, when I'll be painting it anyway. Again thanks for all the info and patience with my questions.

I'm in for the PFRP. I hope it'll be $169 also.

I'm on board with 03ZILVERSTONE & ONEBADFYVO .... The Flexible FRP sounds interesting. Are the flexible features similar to that of urethane? If that be the case then I'm in.

hey jay,

i think it would be a lot nicer if the 06 carbon was a one piece.... it would be worth the extra shipping cost. the 06 has that little indentation which draws attention to the lower center part of the bumper/lip. i think it would look a little strange and give it that broken appearence. i would much rather have a one piece design for the 06. like the center finisher you already have.......

Shipping for 2 pcs kit and one pcs kit price is almost double... humm... PFRP is very flexible, but not as strong as urethane. WhatI'm saying is Urethane is more heat resistance. So it won't change shape as easy as PFRP. But once it is on the car, don't matter anyway. So if it is PFRP, we willl not stock them too many. - Jay

If PFRP is close to the crack resistance of plastic, then I'm definatly interested in one. Would you be able to run a group buy with them? It seems like most of the people on here are wanting it in that material. Also how much would it run? Thanks.

Glad to see we have a decent option. I love this lip, but $360 for the urethane version is ridiculous.
