New Bomex Aero Products

looks fantastic, but I am not sure I would want a CF one. I'd be in for poly or ABS at a cheaper price though.

Bomex started out as an office in Japan I believe. The black center piece is carbon fiber.

I was just informed that Bomex is going to offer a full FRP version as well.

So what's the chance they can make an all carbon fiber lip? Fiberglass will chip a lot more than nissans paint.

Thanks for the great question . I am sure someone, somewhere was thinking the same thing.

The chances of Bomex making a full carbon lip are probably 50/50 at this point in time. If there was a solid chance of them producing a full carbon version, they would have tested one already; to my knowledge they have not. In the end there is still room for them to try and produce a full carbon lip, but if they really wanted to then more than likely they would have done so by now.

I like the lip a lot but I can't have a fiberglass lip because it will chip like crazy, Especially being so low. Carbon fiber won't have that problem because it won't be painted. It's sunline lip for me.
