    Functional:
    E30 M3 EVO 2 Heckspoiler would be a hit for sure.
    A rear diffuser & front canards.
    A sunroof panel like VAC for @$300-400.

    Cosmetic:
    The CF door panels with the pull strap is classic, but they tend to make noises but nothing some Dynamat or spray can't fix.

    Okay. I'll counter that. What if your building a honda (civic,CRX, whatever) that is to be as light as possible, while looking stock, for hypermiling/gas mileage purposes?

    EDIT: Almost forgot...

    I'm playing devils advocate. I think they're cool, I just have no use for them on the street and know nobody else should have any good reason to --replace-- a metal door with one for street use. Dual purpose car? ok. You know what you're signing up for.

    I do know that there are fiberglass doors on a lot of road cars from the factory, but keep in mind, a lot of cars that came factory with exotic materials were more exotic cars! Imagine that. The doors were entirely useable, and factory. To replace a perfectly good metal door with a fiberglass one for bragging rights is more retarded than the special olympics.

    I'm neutral, as it really doesn't matter either way. All the same shit and not worth taking sides on.

    All I am saying is that fiberglass doors have existed on road cars for over half a century.

    Yeah, they do. There's positives and negatives certainly, but they retain shape pretty well unless you straight up BREAK them. Are you arguing for or against stupid fuhraze parts on the street on $300 E30's? Gimme a break, if someone buys these parts and doesn't know what to expect, they deserve a huge bitchslap.

    They also chip.

    No, my point is you'd have to be a goddamn fool to run carbon door panels on a car you drive on the fucking street.

    I mean, again, okay it's up to you, but whats the point!? It's a racing part.

    You know, to get them just to say you have them is ridiculous, but there is nothing ridiculous about having a road car with fiberglass doors.
