I'm wanting it but I use my car for winter, trying to find out how sturdy it is... Would go well with this:

You can probably have someone custom-make you one for the shipping price alone, lol. Shipping is so cost-prohibitive it's just insane.

I don't have a Sport, and it is carbon fiber... I'd be willing to pay to ship it from Japan provided I'm getting a high quality product.

Who makes them custom?

No idea, that was more of a general statement.

I couldn't find any details about the material the front lip is made out of. Carbon fiber would look great but it's not really ideal for being a front lip since I could imagine it would shatter. If the lip is made from polyurethane that would be perfect because it's flexible and can withstand Minnesota snow and ice. I had polyurethane lips on my two prior cars and it worked out great through multiple winters without any issues.

That rear diffuser does like damn nice, I just can't get over the pricing after shipping costs. We really need to find some locally to start making parts for the Y51 platform.

In the picture I linked the front lip appears to be CF. I had a CF lip on a previous car, you have to be careful with it just like anything nice. That said I never drove the car in winter when it had the carbon fiber lip on it. I have nothing against polyurethane, but I'd like the look of carbon fiber on my current car.
