Did you expect this thread to get better responses?

Get a urethane kit. And yes, polyurethane and urethane are the same thing (when refering to body kits and lips).

How is this comment relevent to anything posted here?

Fiberglass cracks. Urathane or polyurathane will bend rather than crack, making it better for a body kit.

I don't know how set on a body kit you are, but from the ones I've seen, the fitment is usually awful and they look like ****. But good luck.
