Unhappy Ings+1 N-Spec Question...

Hey guys, interested in the Ings+1 N-Spec body kit in the "Hybrid-aero". In all of the pictures i've seen advertised, like below, it shows the bottom and center portions carbon fiber... however, i can't find anyplace to attest to this being true. I contacted Ings+1 via e-mail and couldn't get a straight answer. Is the bottom portion bonafide carbon fiber, or does "hybrid-aero" look similar to CF? Looking for someone that can no-shi*t confirm or deny this. Thanks guys, Really appretiate it.

i don't think its carbon fiber, nor does it look like c/f on the picture as well. Ings+1 offers this in regular frp and hybrid aero, which is frp with something else to make it little more durable.

here is link from ings+1 explaining what hybrid aero is:

I thought the Hybrid Aero was just polyurethane?

Edit: Nevermind I read the link you're right. = P

Yeah, read all that... just confusing... because if you look CLOSELY it does appear to be CF. Look especially at the right hand corner

Ings+1 N-Spec Hybrid material had no CF what-so-ever. There is only one Authentic CF Ings+1 N-Spec kit in the US that I know of, and it was 100% CF. Here is a pic of my old set-up with the Ings+1 N-Spec Hybrid material.

The pics does look like carbon on the bottom. Maybe like said above that the whole bumper was carbon and painted.

Thats what i'm thinking too... Ings+1 should really have an alternate picture up then, it is really deceiving, not really representing what it is they are selling.
