Hope it gets produced in Polyurethane.
TS wont produce this in poly. it will be FG like their bumpers. other wise they use carbon, but that is only on their small lips and diffusers

the fiberglass material that TS and all the other major jdm power house tuners use is super high quality, i tons of jdm bumpers and lips in the materials including TS. and none had any fitment issues, none ever broke all were perfect. major your judging because you dont have experience with these compaines and their high quality material. If you did you wouldnt be making these un educated comments

and what are these comments based on? what major JDM compaines parts have you delt with that were made of fiber glass that sucked? Im coming from an extensive list of brands all of which were fiber and non sucked such as Mugen, Amuse, Top Secret, Garage Dended, Back Yard Special, Air Walker, ASM, C West, Feels, GP Sports, Ings+1, J's Racing and the list goes on. Not one item was crap by any mean. In fact they all blew away the quality, craftsmen ship and fitment of the poly kits i have seen produced here. I would be willing to bet money you have not delt with any of these compaines at any point in time which is why you make such BS claims.

I love how you were using the term Fiberglass and now that Irish came in and taught you really what it is...fiber reinforced plastic... and now you have switched and using that term...

Guess you can never learn too much on these boards... Glad you FINALLY learned something here!...

I dont care how smart people say they are... or how hardcore JDM people say they are... I want something on my car that is durable... I will pay the 3x the cost for better material...

Now... if this fiber reinforced plastic is different than actual Fiberglass... I guess ill just have to see it in person at the next show...

Fiberglass is crap ... and Fiberglass is what I have been talking about in this whole thread.

Irish had nothing to do with it. It is fiber glass. did you not read the definition i posted. it clearly says fiber glass in that clear as day. if you want me to keep using the term fiber glass i will whatever makes you happy. i learned nothing new that i didnt already know. but you sure have a long way to go
