There is an assumption that the series is contact heavy and that's actually not true. I had no contact at all with other cars and few others did either. On the whole people are bringing out really nice racecars with tens if not hundreds of thousands of $$ invested in them and they have no interest is wrecking them. Sure with 50 cars in 3 different classes all running the same race at the same time there is a potential for a lot of car-car contact but that's the exception. The drivers on the whole were very careful not to make stupid moves or mistakes.

The race today was a lot more aggressive, there was auto parts flying everywhere right from lap 1. Coming out of turn 5C I was behind 3 touring cars (one class lower, remember I started at the back) 3 wide through turn 6. They all came together like a sandwich and the middle car, a silver VW golf had his whole rear end flipped up into the air. Whan he came down he shot into the left wall and bounced back onto the track across my rear view mirror.

to within 15 ft of a BMW who had done the same thing much earlier in the race.

and here is the Seibon Honda S2000 | 10MM WIDER:
SEIBON CARBON FIBER FENDERS
Breaking the boundary between originality has become a habit with Seibon and their innovative products. As we look closer at the new Seibon Carbon Fiber Fenders, we notice that the research and development invested into the manufacturing of this product was more than just intensive. Through the exclusive curvatures and contours of each design, we can quickly see the many beneficial factors that go into its manufacturing process.

Haha not to mention the blurb about Seibon "breaking the boundary between originality" when almost all of their products are knock offs of more expensive original products and one of the pictures is even of a knock off ASM fender 
Don't wanna open that debate, just thought it was funny.
If one does value low price over quality as rlaifatt suggests though, they're probably a good option.
