Question Anybody have any experience with Retroraceteam products?

Exactly as the title states. I stumbled upon this website while looking for design schmatics and pictures from the IMSA cars and found these guys who have over fenders cheaper than I have seen anywhere else. Thoughts?

Looks nice. You have to be careful though, as quality is hard to find in fiberglass parts. I would find someone who has already purchased/installed them before pulling the trigger on it.

The price point is great but like you said quality with fiberglass components has a high level of fluctuation from different manufacturers. The fitment, although hard to judge from the pictures, appears to be pretty good but who knows how many hours they had to spend to get their products to fit properly.

lol well I will be looking forward to some feedback about it. If it holds up to the vigors of racing as seen in the pictures it should be good enough to not catastrophically disintegrate past 80mph like some of the "fiberglass" i have seen (kits mostly made out of resin with 1 or 2 layers of actual glass)
