This one is black FRP but you get the idea. CF is a bad choice IMO for a front lip because front lips are disposable. That particular lip is about 50% covered with black racing tape at this point.

Well here's the thing, front lips *are* disposable.

You hit them, **** gets kicked up from the road, bitches mess with them, if you're lowered, you slam it into stuff, you just never know; **** happens.

Carbon Fibre is too expensive for that sort of abuse.
