R34

I've been looking into body kits for a while, and decided on the R34 kit.

I have both: bodykits.com and Streetconcept.com offering the same price.

Have any of you dealt with these company's in the past, if so were they easy to work with? And how is your kit holding up for you?

Thanks.

It's cool, I'm just looking for the best of the two company's.

Both company's seem legit, just looking for opinions.

Which ever one You decided to buy Your kit from, don't buy fiberglass. It's too fragile, easy to repair but it cracks too easy. Especially if You have bags.

I believe I bought my kit from Bodykits.com. They had excellent service. When I say it cracks to easy, I mean You won't just get cracks from scraping or what ever but You will also get stress cracks in the gel coat(looks like spider webs in the paint). I also have SLR fiberglass fenders and had the same problem. On the other hand, the last time I repaired it I used a marine fiberglass resin, and painted it with a base coat clear coat, instead of enamel. I also made some skid plates for the corners on the front bumper. I haven't had any problems yet and it's been on for a while. Probably too much info, but just trying to help.

So no fiberglass. Anyone have any links for urethane, besides PICHY2G's link?

$500 shipped-for fiberglass
$800-for urethane +s/h
