Ive seen a few GRP parts on ebay recently, but dont know if its another way of just saying "firbreglass with a posher name".
I know fibreglass can be a nightmare with chipping/flaking paint, whereas ABS is a lot more durable, however i dont know if glass reinforced plastic is another material altogther  :huh:

I have been in contact with this company over the last week. I was looking at the front anni valance.

I will buy one to test how it fits then organise a group buy if its a good fit?
