    Only companies that are/were selling them was SDR (now sold via EPL, if at all) and GMG, but both are RS4 wide body replica pieces.

    I wouldn't touch one for driving anytime on the road. You will destroy that thing in a matter of hours on the streets. They are for show and track only-and most track cars won't even touch them due to cost. You'd be surprised at what you see on real racecars-plywood and duct tape and crap like that. Very little high end materials due to cost.

    I don't see why you would need a CF bumper, you're probably not going to save weight over a stock one.

    theres a clear film that adheres to bumpers,hoods and side mirrors to prevent rocks and debris from damaging your cars. depending on how you want to the ride to look, this is a great investment. more effin great for carbon.

    How would driving on the road destroy it?
    Only if you got in an accident.
    but ABS and Fiberglass will break in an accident too.

    I think it would be good for looks. and for weight.

    driveways, dips, construction, and speed bumps are great examples of how you could destroy it in hours. CF doesn't take kindly to these things.

    have you ever lifted a bumper? you'd be cutting like 2lbs tops

    I'm working on one and will beat the ever loving shit out of it. I'm making it because I've broken stock bumpers too many times.
