Question

Been looking at various companies and their spoilers and am completely confused.

Is there any drawback in what the spoiler is made from? i.e. FRP, GRP (or are these the same), Carbon Fibre (obviously lighter and more expensive), mixtures of FRP/GRP and plastic.

Anything that should be known about the different materials? Or are they all much a muchness?

Question

And another thing, is there a difference between plain fibre glass and FRP?

If so which is better?

Anyone?

if i were you i would go for a spoiler in pu rim this is the same as the original spoilers , fibe glass usally costs more to paint (although cheaper to buy)as it takes a lot more preperation and 'sometimes' never look quite right unless a bit of time is spent preping it first.
ithink GRP stands for Glass Reinforced Plastic.
