Chances are it can be found less for online if people here look for it 0.o?
This would be easier to mold me thinks?

I really don't think is a good deal... $249 and fiberglass. Just my opinion though...

i mean beside the fact that it's a knockoff...wouldn't you rather pay the extra 100 for a urethane authentic product and only have to worry about paint if it gets bumped around a bit rather than replace it and spend another 250-350 plus paint?

that's just plain dumb.

Um yeah, I agree 100%. Most body kits are fiberglass, Vertex, Veilside, etc. They have to be to get the aggressive designs most of them have. There are only a few that are urethane, like RMM, L-Sportline, and maybe Toms, and those are pretty conservative, but clean. I've learned the hard way when I was a noob, when I first started modding and didn't even know I bought a knock-off kit, I just thought I got a really good deal, heheh.

Many still use fiberglass because it's A LOT cheaper than urethane that's for sure. Cost cutting FTL. I much rather have them make their kits out of urethane. If it gets scratched, you can repair it. With fiberglass, good luck on patching it up.
