I got an old school fiberglass WW kit on my CRX.

It's a lot stronger than I ever imagined. Its survived a LOT of abuse over the past couple years. If you have the money, I know urethane is better but a good quality fiberglass kit isnt THAT bad. Just dont go buy those "Mugen style" ones on ebay for $299. They're paper thin and the fitment is horrible.
