does anyone know the waight of the duraflex mazda speed spoiler?

i am trying to decide, should i buy m speed wing carbon which is $500.00 or the duraflex m speed wich is $285.00. if the waight difference is significant, i am going to buy the carbon fiber....

does anyone know how much heavier is the duraflex one?

both will be about the same...its not real cf its only laid over fiberglass.....and why would you be concerned over the weight of a wing?.....your adding weight any way......

Low level question....why?

What are the main pros VS. cons. I am curious as I am looking for a body kit.

Thank you,

Brian

search and you shall find.....with a replica you stand a chance of paying more for itment and in the end than a genuine kit....sure its cheaper but you wind up paying more at the end......and you still got a cheap knock off

yup basically its cheap crap. Theres a reason why knock-offs cost a fraction of what the authentic product does. If you go with a cheap body kit, you get a crappy thin material that breaks instantly. Not to mention the huge amount of shop time getting the thing to fit correctly. Unless you wanna look like a Honda Civic.

I have the MS spoiler on my car. And it is a genuine one from Rosenthal. Cost me $600, plus another $200 for my local dealer to paint and install it.

I can tell ya, it is super light, hardly weighs anything, but I have seen fakes compared to my authentic. And I would have paid $1500 for my authentic before getting a fake, haha.

Had a feeling. Hoped it might only be a brand name VS. non brand name.

Thank you,
