Just looking to weigh the pros and cons of running Fiberglass bumpers and possibly hood and rear deck lid. How well do they fit? how much weight would you save etc...
Coming from desert racing im not scared of fiberglass or working with it, im Just trying to see if it would be worth investing in it. In the desert you are running in to stuff all the time so the fiberglass makes cheaper to replace panels. My rear deck lid is perfectly fine, though my hood could use some TLC, my bumpers are in decent condition but the rubber strips on them have seen better days. I would rather replace these if they also add an advantage to the weight or deal with them and save the money. I do like the front bumpers with the skirt/ "splitter" incorporated in to them.... Any recommendations on 914 fiberglass distribution? Thanks in advance. |
