Default Is the Wald kit fibreglass?

Im seeing on Intensemotorsport website that the Wald kit is fibreglass...I was really interested in this kit till I saw that....I thought it was polyurethane....I need that flexibility here in New York...I had fiberglass kits on previous cars and the durability sucked.....If a fly farted on it the paint chipped and it cracked...Never again for fiberglass...I did a search on the wald kit and only got back 4 posts...None of which answered my questions..So diiiie you "search" monkeys ...

Seems to be a discrepancy in price too..Im seeing from $3000-$1400...Obviously I would choose the lower price if its a genuine Wald kit and not a knock off...

Also anyone have high res pics of Wald kit on the Z. Every pic Ive searched is pretty dark or low res...Thanks

I do not know how much would you win in terms of material strength, but the Carbon Creations W-1 is a carbon copy (pun) of the wald kit. It is also about 50% pricier. Go to either the CC homepage of www.350zonline.com to buy it.

Thanks for the link...Interesting..That looks exactly likie the Wald...CC is strong but not forgiving...Im afraid that hitting speedbumps or the like will crack it. In case you didnt know New York streets suck azz. Thats why I was hoping for Urethane...So forgiving and better suited to NY concrete jungle...I must say tho that if the Wald is Fiberglass Ill have to go with the CC W-1...I love this kit...

B-Unit any conclusive proof? I dont want to shell out the dough to find out after the fact..Thanks for your post tho.

Good to see a local Z guy...Ive seen a few driving around this part of Brooklyn...A white one and 2 red ones...I think Im the only DBZ in the immediate area at least so far...What color is yours?

BTW I usually jog in Marine park at least 2wice a week so I know the area...My sis lives in Old Mill Basin...We should meet up sometime...Would love to hear the exhaust...Im contemplating getting the Greddy Evo II duel or the Borla Dual after I get my rims...Leaning toward the Greddy though..later
