Looking to customize front end

To further elaborate on the topic of fiberglass, there is a vast difference in quality and durability between a European manufactured body kit/aero part that meets TUV standards than most of the domestically produced "stuff" one encounters on Ebay and the like.

Thanks, I figure there must be high quality fiberglass out there. I mean, Vettes and Lotus cars use Fiberglass extensively, and I don't see them running around with big rock chips on their front ends. Lol. Perhaps they have some more flex in them or have protective covering.

Do you know where they use these materials? I doubt in bumpers.

Here is an interesting site worth checking out . CSR Automotive is a German company who specializes in making some really high quality TUV certified body kits for 986, 987, and Cayman ect.. at reasonable prices.
FVD Brombacher USA use to import some of their products.

I always liked this company's rendition of the GT3 style bumper for the 986/996. Its made by a Germany company called In-tuning.de. Its also a high quality TUV certified product. The importer in this country is Strictly Foreign, however, there's a seller on Ebay who offers it as well.
