Default Anyone here have ABS plastic lip on their car?

Just wondering what the quality is like... there is a group buy for $45 per lip and I was thinking about getting it.... is it worth it?

$45 is nothing, but still shipping is like $50....any feedback is appreciated.

ABS is really strong shit.
i would buy it.
most likely if it DOES break, it would be because you got in a major accident. but you shouldn't have to worry about it cracking on a speedbump.

It's not "unbreakable" as they claim. Only kits that I think are REALLY durable are the Wings West lips. They are bendable like gumbi.

im wondering....does it really "break" or is more like a tear or rip? i can't visualize that stuff actually "breaking"...unless the paint and clear coat make it really hard...? does anyone get what im saying? :dunno:

It's strong enough. If you break it, then you probably deserved it for not driving more carefully.

I painted mine flat black with a can because I knew it'd get all scrapped up.

I have one on my accord and scrape often but it hasnt broken yet. It seems very strong too, and if you get some scratches sand paper cn fix it really easy.
