If you're worried about LEO, simply paint them. It's not like they are going to unbolt your fender when they pull you over for speeding or what not.

Well, unless a K9 starts sniffing your fenders..

I have cf fenders on my 2G and have had them since March and been pulled over probably 12-15 times since them and never been harrassed for my cf hood/fenders/hatch.

CF fenders look good.

whats the difference between those and fiberglass though? Because everyone says the fiberglass ones suck and crack.

Carbon fiber fenders are a fiberglass shell/mold then wrapped in hand laid carbon. CF fenders will also crack and you have to be extremely careful.

If properly made they should not just crack. And paint them please, they look weird without paint.

Harking back to those halcyon days of 2005, no, CF fenders are not illegal.

Oh, and look! Now we can throw the dirt back over this cadaver.
