$70.00 is probably a fair price. But if it's thin fiberglass, you'll break it if you're not careful.

i had a fiberglass lower lip on my JDM front It was thick as hell too....really good quality (cough cough). But after a while and....thrice of it being cracked no matter how careful I was ( potholes at night are damned hard to spot sometimes....) I just decided to gun it whenever I saw a pothole Hell...it'd already been craked in several places three times and I was getting tired of fixing it. In turn that gave me a damned good excuse to get the OEM lip So yea.....get a ployurethane one and save yourself some headaches

truthfully, if the fiberglass part is made properly, it is supposed to be able to sustain a certain amount and sometimes a considerable amount of "abuse" or damage to it. But its not invincible. One good hit in the right angle and spot....and there ya go.......
