DITTO. do NOT get fiberglass ones. the amount of time it takes to get everything perfect on your kit and your car..just a headache. the urethane kit from wings west is so much better.
ANYWAYS, back to what everyones car looks like lol

Fiberglass is fine as long as you get it from a reputable company such as VIS. I still would want a urethane front bumper though, just in case you bump something, it isn't going to explode into 83747271637486937262 pieces.

 I would know too. I had a fiberglass front bumper once and was looking in the rear view, wasn't watching where I was going one time. I was just creeping at 20km/h and I went over a huge speed bump and it broke the lip of the bumper right off, didn't even scratch the paint.....
Having fiberglass sides and rear is fine, since you would have to be pretty retarded to somehow break those. My friend has his '92 Lude dropped on the stock 14's with fiberglass sides and rear lip, they've been fine for a couple years now. His fiberglass front lip was ripped in half from the snow on my street last year He has since got a Seibon CF lip.
I myself decided I like the stock look better, as you can tell. As for right now, my car looks the same except I have the stock si wheels on with winter tires, even though I don't drive the car other than to let it run for a bit then go for a wash.

What's wrong with hood pins? Maybe his latch is broken. Hood pins are lighter than a latch anyways

I am going to get rid of the hood pins and the stickers when I get the paint/body work done...Glossy black with a mild kit. The pins make alot of extra noise. I put them on because the hood latch doesn't always work. The flat black is a rattle can job to keep the rust at bay. There is very minimal body damage but the driver side door got hyper-extended before I bought it. You can see the dent above the stickers. That whole door is kind of screwed. I will post more pics when I get the work done. |

Aye, the flat black is great for the guess factor.
IE:
You have great tires on the ground, a custom exhaust, hoodpins, and you have spraypainted your car with cans..... where did the money go? (can we say, engine?) keeps everyone wondering if they are about to get schooled.
Got a friend has a mach 1 mustang pumping around 400whp.. got schooled the other day by a white crx "dx".. schooled hard.. wish i could have taped it heheh
