Carbon Fiber or ABS
 

What does anyone think, Im getting a mugen front lip for my 2000 civic, but should I get the carbon fiber version??? does anyone know if these tend to crack or snap easily??

Or do I just get the ABS plastic one and get it painted and run with that

i say go w/ the abs and painted one...big ol peice of CF just seems like something that someone would want to rip off your car

I'm not sure what the rest of your car looks like, but I think the painted ABS usually looks better.

me i saw a carbon fiber front spoiler with these ripplez in it... EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW :pukey

carbon fiber=the crack, the suck, the destroy. polyurethane=the strong, the own, the not-crack-over-speed-bumps-bottoming-out. go urethane!!!

wouldn't the carbon fiber be prone to crack since the material is flexible...unless that depends on the maker of the front lip.

also, the ABS plastic will likely crack..compared to polyurethane. u can still paint the carbon fiber can't you?

yes, carbon fiber is most likely to crack because it is flexible. urethane is without a doubt the most expensive, but also the most rugged, durable material for body kits. you can paint any body kit material reguardless of what it is made out of.

You sound like a man that lives in New York:bandit:

go with the ABS. Its pretty strong.
