Carbon Fiber Durability

I really want a carbon fiber hood & lip but I'm afraid they'll get chipped up easily. I do alot of driving(50 miles minimum each day on the highway). Will this stuff chip like the stock items? I'd hate to invest a good chunk of money just to see it get mangled by everyday driving.
Also, any suggestions on brands? I've heard Fiver Images is supposed to be real good.

ive had my CF hood for over a year and have no road rash on it as of yet. i drive 40 miles round trip to work, i put about 250 miles on a week. as far as quality get fiber images, you'll be happy. they have the lightest design and the best quality.

That's good to hear. Now I'll have to look around for some pricing.

Thanks.
