not really with it being fibreglass it's lighter so it should go faster.

yep! this is true, especially round my end, i hav had my car scrathed loadza times... ITS JUS JELOUSY! And it turns in2 more money 4 u then so u cant win. if u get a kit u dont wana b goin 2 fast thou especially on bumpy roads coz as soon as u hit ur bumper on the ground ur hittin ur wallet 2 get it fixed as its more fragile that standard bumpers bein fibreglass.
