i had problems with fibet glass before, and had to repair myself. if you got teh patience and time, it's all doable. but it's a lot of dirty work and it takes a lot of time to perfect it for sure

Any Fiberglass kit will break if hard contact is made with ground or another car.... its just a depends on the situation. Some JDM fiberglass kits are more resilient than Fiberglass copied kits. If you are a savvy lowered car driver.. you shouldnt have any issues. repairs would not be too bad on fiberglass if u had to do it.

yup, i agree, once you are used to it, drive with fiber glass is ok. and the jdm fiber glass they flex a bit more than the cheap ones. still, it's not plastic flexible, so if you have hard contact, boom it's gone
