What the ****?

I don't think you should be asking for opinions, I think you should be asking for viable justifications.

umm... NEVER EVER get fiberglass! So easy to crack/break/get torn and/or ripped off your car

abs plastic is good, though i would get urathane, more spendy but totally worth it.

eurathane or plasticfor front and rear bumper, but I found a set of sideskirts that I really like that are made of fiberglass (i may get them anyways( I mean how often does your sideskirt get hit?

I would never get any other rear bumper for my car other than the S4 rear, and the only two fronts I would ever go for are the S4 and the RS4 and never in fiberglass....

gl!

Carbon fiber is strong and lightweight.

That's why they're so expensive.

carbon fiber in the right application is stronger then steel, the only way its the same is because its made with matt and resin

as far as body kits go... dont get a body kit

Ever been driving and see some ricer with an unpainted, carcked and chipped body kit? Even with paint, that's what happens to fiberglass.
