Well i am considering buying some blitz/battle z low sideskirts and a blitz/battle z rear bumper. Just had a few questions about kits. First, would fiberglass be ok for sides and rear? I would go with urethane if i were to get a front for sure but the sides and rear wont be scraping. I'm planning on going with a stock 97-99 front with an RM chin later on. Second, how does fiberglass fit compared to urethane. I have heard some bad stories about body kits not fitting good and i want a close fit(keep in mind im not buying and aftermarket front) And third, i have heard you should leave the kit on the car a couple days so it will adjust to the body...is this true? Could i install the rear and sides myself? I know its a lot of questions just searching all over for answers and not finding many. TIA to anyone who answers.
 
well I got a blitz being installed in the shop right now,

here are a few things to observe.

Urethane is more flexible but if you tear it its good bye, fiberglass can be repaired, sidea and rear are ok

no kit will fit 100% correctly, there will be modifications such as cutting, grinding, adding of Fiberglass to make it fit correctly, plus lost of sanding, bondo body filler, and be prepared to leave it there for a month.

but the wait is damn worth it :D
