Default Quality question

Looked around at some other threads on spoilers, one guy mentioned spoilersmart.com, I checked them out and they have great prices. What I think may be the downside is that the material they use is "ABS Virgin Plastic Resin".
Most spoilers iv looked at are either cf or fg. Is this plastic stuff durable? Anyone have a spoiler from this company? They say they have a lifetime warranty but iv seen that go down the drain with other companies. Iv seen many plastic parts worn out and crack where the hardware is installed, like the threading for example. Now iv done plenty of research and did not see anything on the durability of this plastic stuff so for the love of God please dont flame me or whatever lol.

Its usually the old,"pay for what you get"deal.
If the price is unbelievably low,the quality&fit usually is too.
What type of spoiler are you looking at?Rear ?
The "plastic" they are referring to is probably the same stuff used
for your bumper.Its a flexible poly material.For a spoiler,its gonna have
more rigidity.I'd check with some of the forum vendors to see if they handle
the same design spoiler that you are looking at.Another big factor is proper prep
and painting of the spoiler.Some vendors offer pre-painted units.The color match
may not be exact.Of course if you go CF,this is not an issue.
What design are you looking for?

well its actually the Celica rear spoiler, I saw some pics from other members and they said it fits great and imo it looks like one of the best. It flows really well with the rest of the car. They must sell a lot for the Z bc the same spoiler can be found in both the Celica and the 350 category. Its price at $100 if I remember right. I have read thread after thread about spoilers and either they look way out of my league, riced, or way expensive. You are exactly right tho, i get what I pay for. I guess I was just keeping my fingers crossed that this company might be best of both worlds.
