Seibon 

Our experience with Seibon is horrifying, hence why we decided to stop selling them years ago. Lacquer hazes after 6 months and needs to be re-done, it's just gel coat, rather than clear finish.

 

Fujimura, VIS Racing and Fly1 Motorsports are the best, perfect fitment.

AMS version in stock, the rest is on 8-12 weeks special order.

This. 

 

I had a Seibon carbon fibre spoiler and 2 different detailers struggled to bring it back to life, so much oxidation and bubbling in the gel coat and no UV protection. AVOID Seibon AT ALL COSTS.

I've raised this exact issue on the forum previously.

 

Having bought Seibon bonnet and front wings (fenders if you're in the US), I've got to say build quality is good but UV resistance is utter dogshit.

 

As others have said they haze and look like crap really rapidly, I've wrapped mine to deal with the issue as I got fed up trying to rectify the issue with polish etc,.

 

They aren't cheap and aren't interested in the issue.
