there are 'good' ones, but typically they dont last all that long.

I never had any problems with the kit on my civic, the sideskirts were urethane though.

Urethane kits weigh more too, i don't know how significant the weight would be as far as slowing you down....but some people do anything to lose 30 lbs off their car...

No id say, spend a little more money and buy a Polyurathane kit! My friend had a F/G bumper and his aunt just barely tapped it, put a hole in it to size of a softball. Not a good investment:thumbsdow

black widow kits are very durable, I had two kits on two different vehicles and they lasted for a long time.

urethane kits are more expensive, but typically require much less labour to install as well. something to keep in mind.
