Default WW kit

Hey I got the ww rs kit on my crx and I am looking to mold the sideskirts and doorcaps. I was wondering if anyone knew what to use to mold this. I heard that its kinda tricky because its hard for it to stick to urethane and metal. Let me know if you know.

Well from what I know, Urethane is hard to add to, so it might be a little trciky molding it in. It would be easier if it was one of the fake kits that are fiberglass.

In the long run you would be better off selling that kit to someone and getting a fibergalss kit if you want to mold it in. Urethane can expand with heat, and the fiberglass/bondo yo use to adhere it to the car will not expand, and after enough of the expansions and contractions a crack will begin to form where you join the panels. I just wouldn't mold it in the first place, but if you're hell bent, get fiberglass

yea, hes right fiberglass, i would sell the sideskirts for some fiberglass ones, and just keep the front bumper. If your car is lowered you will need a strong front bumper so.. But good luck.
