yes, it is fiberglass, but very high quality. You can bend the side skirts to about 90 degrees without hearing a crack or anything. I bought it through 350zforums.

And yes, they are gram light f-pro rims.

and the car has a procharger on it, not a turbo setup.

Very nice! It looks classy, but aggressive. It doesn't look glued on like some of the others. Luv it.

I had the car tuned on the rich side since i am constantly at drift events really hammering on the car. But it did 357rwhp regardless.

350zforums is the knock off kit right?

I read that the procharger has a kind of whine from the belt, do you experience this?

yes, the whine is choppy and noisy at idle, but when its anywhere above 1k rpms, it sounds like a jet basically.
