Has anyone had any experience with carbon fiber body kits. Do they hold up as well as the other types of body kits? And, what are some good brands to look at? I thought it might be a good idea, since then I wouldn't have to worry about getting it painted. Any help would be great.

 

getting a reguler body kit and getting it painted would probably be 10times cheaper then buying a Carbon fiber kit, i havent had any experience with them but iv never heard anything bad about them eather, very light of course..but like i sead, its going to be VERY expensive..

 

getting a regular body kit would look better to unless your car is black..

 

I don't care much, and don't know too much about body kit's, but I thought body kit's were made out of Fiber-glass, if so, I thought Fiber-glass is pretty light weight, but I would think it would just be cheaper to get it painted

 

^^^ carbon fiber is like a type fiberglass but not really, its 100times better...much more strength and duribility and much more lighter

 

what the hell are you gonna do if you get in a wreck? Insurance is gonna laugh at you when you tell them the price of your bumper!

 

lol i can see it now, I would be screwed when it comes to my insurance. Well thanks for all your help.

 

Go ahead and get a regular kit. Unless you really like the look, or are wanting as much weight reduction as possible, and entire carbon fiber body kit is gonna be expensive as hell.

 

carbon fiber body kits are pointless IMO. there shouldnt be any add on CF items...it should all be replacements...like hoods and trunks and fenders...to lighten up your car...because other than hoods and sometiems fenders, carbonfiber on color looks stupid.
