i am looking to get m3 side skirts and the kevlar are much less than the reiger, however i heard that the strictly foreign are a major pain to mount. i was wondering if anyone has bought these and if there had been any problems with mounting them?

Re: Kevlar M3's (GotEuroCorrado)

Yeah your right. I just got the same quote from them. Do you have a pictures of the bbr's? I want to make sure they are the same as reiger? Also how did they fit and hold up to painting? I think i'm going to order mine on tuesday or wednesday.
thanks

Do you think the kelvar will crack? The reason i'm thinking about bbr side skirts is becasue I will save about 100.00. That saved money would pay for painting and mounting. But I don't want to buy something that will crack or not fit.
I wish rieger would just lower there prices a lot. Everything is getting so costly for looks. I thought performance would cost me the most.

i trust kevlar over abs plastic... plastic will bent... and in the heat warp if ur suspention is hard. the kevlar is tough stuff... but still very flexable and easy to mold. you will get more life out of kevlar

Anyways- Kevlar has more abrasion resistance than other types of fiber- It is great in areas where you will rub alot- it can be lighter however it does not have the rigidity alone - in order to have a really strong part made from Aramid (kevlar) would be to combine it with an graphite (carbon fiber).
