from the sound of them talking about it, it sounds like fiberglass...
i could be wrong though.

you will learn the way of driving around block so you can pull in the driveways at the right angle (turning right instead of cutting across). you will learn to park 2 feet back from the parking blocks.
it takes a while, and you just have to be careful (see pics in my sig to see how low the front of my mr2 was)

i think i bought a few extra 1000 miles driving around places so i could enter at the right angle so i didn't scrape. worked great until a rabbit jumped in front of me and i whacked it.

car looks great by the way

the urethane kit is just a lip kit and side skirts.

the fiber glass is a full front bumper. the reason its fiber glass is because it has little flex and can retain the shape being as large is it is.

smaller peices can be urethane and not have much warping. sadly fiberglass can crack.

Hey since this has turned into a Vizage/Visages/JP thread, does anyone know which fog light bulbs would closely match the HIDs color? I just finally upgraded my Base's Halogen lights to HIDs so now they look yellow compared to the headlights. I'm pretty sure it's an H3 bulb, but if anyone could shed some light on it (yes, pun intended ), I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

BTW Andrew any luck on the steering wheel?

If it's ~$400 for the JDM Factory Option Momo steering wheel, that is a great deal! Actually that would fall into the "incredible" deal category. Was that through Z1 Auto? Wow!

Ok I just test fit this kit on my DB Z and everything fit perfect. Only problem I got the front bumper new off somebody that went dew luck at the last min the fog lights I got from him there is no way I can mount them. I called vizage and they told me they dont carry fog lights for this front end yet and wouldnt have any for 3 weeks. so what lights are you guys running and how did you mount them.

By the way kit is going out to paint today
