Material Durability Weight Cost Ease Of Installation
Carbon Fiber High strength, highly durable, but can be brittle Ultra-lightweight Very high Requires precision, challenging for DIY installations
Fiberglass Durable but prone to cracking; requires finishing Lightweight Cost-effective Easy to mold and install, requires post-installation work
ABS Plastic Good impact resistance, flexible Heavier than fiberglass Moderately priced Straightforward installation, less finishing work
Composite Balanced strength and durability, varies by blend Heavier than carbon fiber, lighter than others Mid-range Generally easier to install than carbon fiber
Polyurethane Highly durable, flexible, and resistant to impacts Heavier than others Higher than fiberglass but less than carbon fiber More forgiving during installation, better fit and finish
