ok
i am intreasted in the buddy club 2 body kit, but unfortunatly its only avail in fiberglass.. blaahhhh... i searched around this forum for a few days and noticed that there were several others that have the same prob i do... my question is if the kit were avail in either all poly urethane or the front end in poly, or carbon fiber, would any one be up for buying it then, depending on priceing of course?

costs way to much to make a custom front bumper for limited supply of people. The molds are expensive as hell

White's right, but if you managed somehow to get at least the front end in urethane AND have it at a reasonable price, I'm sure MANY MANY people would by it.

This kinda topic always comes up. If the companies agree to it youll get people who are interested but intersted in actually buying are two different things.

looks like its gonna be to much for just two people, urethane the guys wont do, for what ever reason, the carbon fiber is possible.. im gonna keep looking around, if i find a better price for the front clip ill post the info in a new thread... oso ill pm if i get a solid price out of anyone since you were the main person down fore it.

I would be intrested in urethane to, good luck tryin to find someone to do it.

all the guys im talking to at the moment are looking into pumpin out some carbon fiber ones for me, urethane no one will do, it would be an *** load of work.. and henshin has no plans to ever use urethane, they dont have the resources to...

Why is everyone against fiberglass? I would have fiberglass over urethane any day, and yes, I have owned both.

dude Urethane is crap and over rated, do you know the problems that come with it, Warping and that sort, u cant have it fitted, if it doesnt fit right..glass is tons better, and you can fix if it cracks or fitment is poor...

my xenon is urethane and fitment is perfect. ive hit many things including 2 possums and only recieved two spider cracks in the bumper. if it were fiberglass im sure it would have split in two. bought paint and supplies for $110. includes quart of paint, reducer, hardener, adhesive promotor, primer w/flex,sand paper, quart of clear coat, and a scotch brite pad. can you repair and paint fiberglass for $110?

I have also heard from many people who do body work that Fiber Glass is easier to fix as long as the damage is not too severe. If you hit something with an urethane kit hard enough, it will warp and it's pretty much fvcked. I love the buddy club 2 kit and plan on ordering it this week when my taxes come in. They lowered the price for it from what I heard.

Actually, you can fix fiberglass cheaper than that. Really the only good way to fix urethane when the paint chips or the bumper cracks, is to strip the whole thing. If the urethane cracks or rips, bondo, fiberglass and other body fillers will not stick to it. They may for awhile but over time, it wont. Its also hard to get paint to stick to it. Thats why i got rid of my wings west g5 kit, one chip in the paint turned into the paint peeling completely off. Havent had one problem with the fiberglass Bomex Kit.

i talked to em the other day its 679.00+ shipping. on another note, im not to intreasted in a urethane version,(yes urethane is a pian in the *** to fix, and to fit, xenon's fits near perfect because thats the way xenon is, other urethanes are not always as good) i read on this board that alot of people were, so i figured while im checking around i could see if it could be made but no one will do the project in urethane to many issues involved. im trying to get the front end done in cf, but its sketchy at the moment, due to the fact its such a big job. one guy told me it probably would not be worth it to make any less than ten, so thats why i was seeing if any one was still intreasted, and only two people were.
