What is the kit made out of? FRP, ABS, Polyurethane?

You have choice of carbon or Frp. Only frp comes painted.

And the FRP sounds terrible when you scrape it into stuff, sounds like it's shattering. But it holds up good!

Maybe it uses PFRP? It's like a hybrid Fiberglass that supposed to be more flexiible than traditional FRP.

Hmmm according to the CWest Japan site it is also offered in ABS. I'll probably go for the ABS and update this thread.
Thanks for the answers guys!

The abs one is the only option for pre painted. It is strong but not super flexi. Mine cracked at the fang in shipping. I have the abs one. Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1397611334.566166.jpg

Any additional holes need to be drilled for the entire lip kit or do they just use the Factory holes?

When did you get yours @jadewbj? Mine was covered in so much bubble wrap and foam peanuts that I'm pretty sure that if I would have dropped it would've bounced.

There were a few needed in the front on the inside. They didn't quite all line up with the factory holes. Nothing that wouldn't be covered by a pop tab if you wanted to take it off.

I got mine through a friend and I'd prefer not to say cause they are not a vendor here. They took care of it and sent a new one right away.
