ASM godness!
Hey I found something new about these fenders. The pic above is the ASM Carbon fenders which cost about 4 grips. ASM also makes the same fenders in FRP for a more reasonable price. Also these fenders stick out +25 mm...I am not sure if they would line up with the front bumper or look stupid with stock rims/slightly wider tires (than stock)? What does everyone think, I think I may have found my next mod. I probably want to keep the sidemarkers so I would be drilling these F*rs (have to see how it looks first). Also I am unfamiliar with who would be the best choices for having this painted. Any recommendations and comments welcome (almost

They look nice, but not worth the money. I like the safety of the steel fenders.

Body panels are designed with very little safety in mind. It's true that they dissipate energy, but not a lot. In any accident that you might injure yourself or cause large amounts of damage, the energy dissipation between CF and steel is minimal. Negligable when talking about the forces involved, it's the frame that's going to make or break the car.
And the only aluminum body panels are the hood and trunk, I believe.
