      Yeah, I was interested in the same thing, only I have a question.... Wouldn't CF be even more brittle than fiberglass, I mean, wouldn't it crack very easily? Any ideas?

      I think Seibon (SP?) sells JDM, Mugen and maybe Buddy club replicas in carbon fiber. I'm thinking about getting their Type-R wing.

      Oh yeah, I'd hope that carbon fiber is stronger than fiberglass considering they use it to make chassis and components for F1, CART and other racing series.

      Carbon fiber is much stronger, but very hard to repair if needed.

      usdm bumper = longer
      so a jdm lip kit would look out of whack

      jdm bumpers are SUPER shorter compared to JDM ones

      hey x, how about a side shot of your car against a regular si. If you'd be so kind. I wanna see just how much of a difference the jdm bumpers make.
