hey guys, i know your all against kits and pro lip kits but both of my OEM bumpers are in urgent need of replacement. Their cracked and broke and falling off. So i decided buying a body kit is way cheaper then then getting two new OEM bumpers and buying a lip kit for them. So i have a chance to get either a fiberglass bomex kit or a polyurethane r34 kit. the fiberglass bomex kit is already fitted for the civic and painted NHBP so i would have to paint it EBP to match my car. final cost for the bomex would be 450 picked up.

The polyurethane r34 kit is already fitted to the car and is painted a orangeish color and i would just have to paint it EBP as like above. Final cost for the r34 kit would be 580 shipped.

So im just wondering what route you guys would take and why you would choose that route. thanks for all the help guys.

P.S. wanted to start a poll but i dont have that option yet

polyurethane 4sho, especially for that price difference. Urethane wont crack as much as fiber will.

Both are rice, get the Kamanari Full Front and sides then go with like a tsunami rear or something if you need an entire rear bumper.

Maybe its just me but both those prices seem kind of high. ANd i know ive posted this before but fibreglass isnt as bad as some of the guys on here make it out to be. If you're a careful driver u dont have to worry about it. Also i haveo ne frend who has polyurethane and he kept his car outside all the time and it warped like it changed shape. I dunno if this has happened to any of u but he was pretty pissed. Fibreglass may crack but if it does its usually minor and easily fixible for less then $100 each year but thats the cost of lookin good.

**** bomex, it makes ur car look like areoplane, with the jet vents in the back. i say the r34 octane for a cleaner look

 
Rep Power: 249

neither, both ugly and played out

I have to agree with blackieEM2 the vents do kinda look wierd. I reallly like the tsunami bodykit its really nice. I have the r34 kit and i think the r34 back looks the best. The front meh i could take it or leave it. Thats why i got the cwest front and i love the looks of it.

I second that. Why not look around for a better bodykit?

^^^^^^
i found a urethane tsunmai body kit already painted the color of my car for 680 shipped possibly less. what do you guys think of that? it would save me the work of having to get it fitted and painted, unless it needed to be repainted.

no go with the r34, that is if you are buying it from Russ. which this sounds like. he babies that car

 
Rep Power: 249

^^^^^^^ would that be myinca, if so then yes that is who im buying it from

 
Rep Power: 284

correct. i live right next to him and have known him awhile. the kit is in great shape. it looks pretty good on the car also, especially if it would be lower some. i mean, not the best but it looks good.

 
Rep Power: 259

yeah buy it from that russ guy...hes poor and needs the money. i hear the kit is amazing too

 
Rep Power: 246
