Why!! Whyyyyy

I'm kind of shocked companies haven't come out with any polyurethane body kits. I can't stand that the only one is the stillen kit (aka Urethane kit). Why make cheap fiberglass kits? Arghh..

The main reason is because when I put the apex catback on my 97 it sat up too high and sorta melted the bumper a bit and was looking for a replacement but found nothing but CHEAPO fiberglass kits. Oh well. I should've got under the car and bent those hangers (even though it was 0 degrees out in NY)

The mold for a polyurethane kit is quite expensive, and it costs more to make a polyurethane one, especially when you compare factors like whether a company will serve the honduh civic community vs the maxima.

Hey, I know I would pay the extra price. Who wants to repaint their kit yearly due to cracks and chips in the paint? I know alot of people in this community would too.

(psssst, hey Greg, you should take my advice for your next bodykit!)
