Yeah, I went down that road for a while too and the only one I could find for the first gen was the WW. Too common and mild for my taste. Good luck though. :?

Sorry, let me clarify that....I drive a first gen. I believe Redz is right on the second gen. Not sure why companies don't make them....might be more expensive right off the bat but most people would pay more for a eurethane kit since the chance of them breakage is less.

Ehh, it's the fact that FRP is cheap to make and very durable. Urethane is much heavier.

I'm trying to get my body shop friends to make a perfect mold of my VS bumper and make a urethane kit... if it works I'll sell some, if not, oh well.

NOTE: This probably won't happen, but I'm trying
