Carbon fiber means replica. the only company that I know of that sells the real deal is 370tune.

I'm putting my 40th in a garage for the winter next month, so will probably install this bodykit around March. Gives me plenty of time to decide and save up. Amuse vs Replica?

Yea, that is a WHOLE other thread there. And one soooo full of opinions, that it would go nowhere. It just depends on you. A lot of people will not buy a replica, I personally would prefer to have the real deal, but get tempted by the much more affordable replicas....

Well is there a noticable difference between the two?

I have never seen the two side by side but as far as pics go I cannot tell the difference. Like I said before it comes down to the installation and paint that makes the look.

I realized I was in the wrong lane at a stop light. I didn't have any cars behind me, so I proceeded to back up and get in the correct lane. A car pulled out of a gas station at the same time. Stupid mistake on my part, luckily the guy I hit had a beater so he didn't care. I could probably pop out the dent, I will post a picture soon.

Unlikely... once it is dented you will notice a seam/crease in the plastic. Did it when someone (cough cough sister) ran into my daily driver. It will also have scuffs obviously.
