Fiberglass. If the OEM front one is ABS, I would get that even if it costs more. It's better because I think you want to go low.

Check into the 05 Sport chin spoiler, maybe find one used. That's what is on Jeremy's. Also the decision should be more of a 19 with 35 series or 20s with 30 series. Mine is running 18s (stock with Sport) and you can see the difference between it and Jeremys.

I've got another set of 18's going on on Monday. At that time the car will look like a Jaguar fused with a bulldog.

Muhahahahaha!!!!

I have 18x8.5 on mine now and in my current sig photo. I just have sightly less tire profile, facey design wheels and the car is sitting a tad lower than yours, so the wheels look a little bigger.
