Nose Options
I had a recent mishap that has left me in the market for a nose. I may just use a stock nose but I wanted to see the options that were out there. I dont want anything to outragous but a little more than stock.
Thoughts?

I would be scared of fiberglass too. I had a friend who had a fiberglass front nose on his Acura and he busted it up so many times he finally took it off and said forget it. I think the Racing Beat Type I looks pretty much stock. Personally I love the looks of the Racing Beat Type II, if I had an NA that's what I'd go with!

Manufactured from hand-laid fiberglass and easily prepped for final painting..."

I'm gonna take a guess and say that probably somewhere very near 100% of aftermarket body panels are going to be fiberglass. The tooling cost to do OEM-style injection-molding is just going to be way too high for the relatively low volume of parts that even someone like RB can move.
