Silver7thgen_ex has a little shameless behaviour in the past
If youre gonna go with a fiberglass kit, make sure you know what youre driving over. Curbs in parking lots included, can do alot of paint and structural damage to the fiberglass. I do alot of interstate driving, so i need to watch out for shredded truck tires, roadkill, other cars, lol. But fiberglass, especially with age and weathering becomes fairly brittle. and it breaks easy. And i speak from experience when i say its a pain in the but to fix without total replacement. But thats just my opinion. Your best bet is to with a urethane kit, as it dosent plum break if you were evevr to hit something.
