there is a big difference between fiberglass and urathane. fiberglass cracks, urathane is flexible and not supposed to crack. I have previously bought a ww rs kit and i had problems with the side skirts and the door caps fitting so i would probally just get the imatation kit.

Yeah I'll second on that, I was always under the impression that urethane kits were supposed to fit well. His kit fit horribly and the car was in perfect condition. We were forced to use a flexiable fusing agent to mold the kit in, here's a pic before the Fusor was cut down.

urathane is a bit heavy. fiberglass sucks and cracks. neither hold paint as well as oem parts. but it can be achieved to look good. urtahne is very strong. even after hitting a deer mine stayed perfectly fine, the paint just cracked.
all you complaining about it fitting perfect. its AFTERMARKET thats why its not going to fit 100% i never seen a ww kit on a crx/civic fit perfect. suck it up.

I have the WW kit on my CRX too. I also had to use Fuzor to acheive a perfect fit.
The differences between Fiberglass and Urethane:
Urethane is heavy and harder to work with than FG but it can really take a beating. FG is easier to work with and is a lot lighter than Urethane but much more fragile.
If I could do it all again I would get a urethane front bumper and the rest in FG. I have already hit a few curbs that would have destroyed FG.
