I had a one off custom kit on my last car and as long as you drive it sensibubbley you'll be ok. Just need to make sure you don't clip curbs or have any tyre rub if you have large rims and lowered suspension.
When I sold my mitsi the guy (who USED to be a mate) got in the day we exchanged and I watched as he reversed 2 metres then drove straight over a rock. Then 3 days later he ripped the front bumper off. Idiot, cost a fortune to repair it all.
So I would say get an ABS/PP kit if your right foot tends to be a bit heavy otherwise if your a Mary Poppins of the round get yourself a fibreglass copy, just make sure it fits straight on.

Buy a genuine kit mate. You can never subtitute the real thing. The copies never seem to fit quiet right and they do crack very easily as well. Besides with a genuine kit, you will probably get your money back when you sell the car. On the other hand most people who know about M-tech's will walk away from one with a glass kit unless your car is something really, really special
