It looks great, not a fan of fiberglass.. I'm going low soon and I'd hate to be scraping that thing. If they were to make a polyurethane model, I'd be on it like white on rice.

I'd advise against duraflex products. my friend purchased an rs4 bumper replica on his audi b5 and it doesn't fit snug like factory and had to get a lot of modifications done to it to get it to fit. plus with the fiberglass composite, it won't allow for much flexing over bumps and driveways, especially if you're lowered like he is. it looks ok from far but up close you can see the fit and finish isn't as good. just my 2 cents on it.

Yea that's what I was wondering if duraflex would fit good. I wouldn't want to have to make too many modifications. Thanks for the advice.

I you join the FB group "TC2FTW" you'll actually see a member that has that lip. I believe he said the fitment isn't the best but he's still sporting it.

Basically a duraflex (fiberglass) replica of the Five Axis front lip.. I too have heard mixed reviews on Duraflex.
