S14 OEM JDM kouki wing question

okay, So I've searched...please, people with knowledge answer my question

is the OEM s14 JDM kouki wing made of fiberglass? I thought I read on here someone said it was made out if polyurethane but there is nothing to dispute this nor confirm that it is in fact fiberglass, mine looks to be OEM and seems to be fiberglass. I would like to know the material in order to fix it, since it came cracked at the base and I don't think the seller, will send me another...since he was so kind to send me one with a cracked base.....please help me out. thanks

Ken

fiberglass, atleast the one I got from Japan, that USPS decided to destroy into 3 pieces was fiberglass.

If it got damaged on shipment, might as well try to make a claim on it. Might atleast recoup the money before you go fix it.

^^^^most reps are fiberglass bro, that we all know, I'm asking about the OEM ones

Flip, thanks for the quick response, I thought it was fiberglass too, I will call my seller tomorrow, some company called JDM Midwest, some guy named Rahim.
Guess I will have to start thinking of ways to reinforce/fix that base of mine, if there are any pointers from people who have done this fix to the base, please chime in, any advice/help would be greatly appreciated.

Ken

was just saying, if the reps are fiberglass i would think the OEM ones would NOT be

thus eliminating your question "is the OEM kouki wing made of fiberglass"
My mistake if im way off

OEM JDM Kouki wings are fiberglass. Though most OEM stuff is ABS plastic.

There are 3-piece replica's that are obviously fake. There are 1-piece replica's that look very similar.

Only way to tell, there should be some part numbers etched into the bottom of where it mounts to the trunk on either side.
