Default Chargespeed stuff....

Was thinking of putting some chargespeed cabon lips spoilers on the front and rear on my s2k along with some carbon skirts aswell...I quiet like the chargespeed stuff but dont know what sort of quality it is..

Has or does anybody on here have any chargespeed stuff or know anything about it..???

The only other problem i have is that i have no idea what it would look like up against a mcb s2k weather i should paint it or i prefer to leave it

quality is moderate at best. they are a mid priced aero tuner from japan that i feel has always focused more on aesthetic than practical use.

Like the others say the quality isn't great but not bad either.
Chargespeed headquarters is based in Osaka Japan however their products are produced by Dalian Jiapin Glass Fibre Products in China
Chargespeed Factory
Their quality control isn't great so the product isn't consitent.
You can get lucky and receive a perfect piece or you may be unlucky and receive a piece with flaws that are usually very minor.
Defects I have seen personally are small particles in the resine which appeared to be little fragments of cardboard material,tiny air holes in resine,carbon misweaves and gaps,etc

I agree with Leester's and Silver J comments

Their CF is not the Quality of ASM or Mugen, but I would put it up higher than VIS/Seibon/etc. I have seen the parts in person at Go Tuning and they are very nice looking.

I don't think functionality is their main goal (they may work though), but the peices look very nice in person and like Lee said fitment can be hit and miss (when its miss it isn't terribly bad though).
