APR Carbon fiber splitter or OEM splitter?

Hey so I got into an accident and demolished my front bumper and got quoted 710$ for the GM OEM front splitter. I am not sure what these splitters are made of and the going price for just the splitter is 710$ which just blows my mind because the whole bumper is only 480$. I was wondering if I would see a difference in quality or cracking or what if I were to get a carbon fiber (cheaper) splitter instead. OEM will put about 150-200$ extra in my pocket as well.

The splitter I am debating of getting instead and saving a few $$

And this is what the OEM splitter would look like on my car (I am going to be putting this grille on as well)

You might want to look at the 1LE splitter we are making out of carbon. Its price compettive to the GM plastic piece. PM me for price.
