Exclamation CorkSport Lip people, list your experience!

I was just wondering how is the durability/flexibiity of the corksport lips. Mainly the odula replica one.
Please list any experiences you had with the lip?

Maybe stuff like: how are steep driveways? How many have u cleared? Cracks? Scratches?

Thanks!

I hit a cone at 60 mph and it cracked. I parked slowly and bumped a curb... it cracked. It's not polyurethane, so don't expect it to be indestructible like your bumper.

But if you're aware of its height and make changes in your driving to address the height thing, you'll be fine.

My newest car had a corksport lip on it. the shippers managed to break it. I'm guessing they broke it coming down the ramp of the carrier. It is very thin fiberglass. Its too bad because it looked great!!!
