b:ABS plastics:
It is formed by vacuum forming and is thinner in thickness,
can not be used as a bumper of the surrounding, can only make the lip of the surrounding.
c: synthetic resin:
Small shrinkage, good toughness, heat resistance and no deformation,
the products produced have smooth surface and relatively high price.
d: polyester plastics:
Is a high-pressure injection molding, has a high flexibility and strength, the price is higher,
the body is also the best fit and has a long life.
e: carbon fiber:
