urethane body kits
Does anyone have a complete list of the urethane body kits that are made for the 94-97 Accord. I am specifically looking for a rear bumper. I know about the Xenon and Wings West W Type. Any others out there?

well has anyone had problems with fiberglass rear bumpers. I know that they are not as sturdy, though I know that some are better than others. But I saw some kids rear bumper fly off on the highway a few weeks ago and I dont want anything like that to happen to me. Any suggestions on the most durable fiberglass rear bumpers? Thanks.

well bumpers jump because they were not attached properly to the car. i have yet to see one just jump on its own, but i still think that poyurethane owns

you have to think also in the exchange of getting a urethane kit that is much more sturdy they tend to sag after a while, fiberglass doesn't. I've been told that in areas with humid climate its best to go fiberglass because the moisture will cause urethane to sag faster

All stock bumpers are urethane aren't they? I have never seen a sagging stock bumper or stock "appearance package" body kit look bad in any way except for abuse.
