Is a carbon fiber front lip resistant to scraping?

ok, my question -how many miles does it take for the white wheel lips to be soiled in brake dust?

Looks great but

Persoanaly I think the car looks fantastic. There are 3 things however that would stop me from bidding on this car. First I have had a tubi exhaust, it was so loud you could not even speak and I had to exchange it for stock. The second (this is just my experience), it looks like the car is lowered and I have had a lowered car. It scrapes all the time. Not for an old far like me. The third is my concern regarding the modification to the motor. They tell me in Atlanta that this may negate the warrantee. I wonder if others have had this experience. It seems like most 6peeders start modifying their engines before they get home good. I know I am too old to speak for most of the readers, but I really believe in KISS (keep it simple stupid).
anyway I think the car looks great and will probably do the same for my next turbo.

wow....the name "uberballer" is cheesy enough for me to keep them off my car lol.....also the blk center with a non-black car w/cocoa interior bothers me for some reason....but the white lip is cool

the color match lip thing is becoming popular, most companies began to offer this custom type finish after SEMA last year but it sort of just caught on...but most 3piece companies such as HRE or Modulare can do similar finishes
