Fitment isn't THAT terrible.
How much flex is there to the piece? So long as you don't anchor it in such a way that it puts stress on a section, you can probably get it to fit about 98% perfectly where the only parts that don't look quite right are under the car where no one will be looking. Seriously, I've seen some really POOR fitment for aftermarket parts, and I'd say that is good to very good although certainly not excellent. How much more is the Fujimura one for perfect fit?

It is hard FRP + a few layer of CF and about 2mm of clear coating. It is not flexible at all... I tried to pull it a little to the outside and could feel that cracking come if I forced it a bit more.
Of course I can force fit it, but that's certainly not worth $400. I got a $120 front lip from ebay and the fitment is many times better. This is not something I could work out with a heat gun, little sanding and fastening. To make it fit right it is needed to -Cut it in 3 pieces -Extend each side about 0.5 inch -Use CF to match pattern, FRP to reinforce it. -Apply clear coat -Sand to flatten and smooth surface -Polish I wouldn't call this good to very good fitment. It also leaves a 1/2" gap in the top but that's the least of my concerns. Last edited by 2ndChance; 06-06-2012 at 10:51 PM. |
