Default Amuse polyurethane

Does anyone know where I can purchase an amuse kit that is made from polyurethane? I have not found anything besides frp and I heard that is very easy to break. Any help would be appreciated.

I think the closest you can get is Duraflex. It is more flexible (or so Duraflex says). But it is not an exact replica.

As long as the quality of the replica is as good as the real thing.

Then your best choice will be duraflex since it claims to be more flexible but it is not the best replica

Ultimate POS, in videos they hit it with bats and have guys bend their bumpers... MY ARSE!!!

As for fit and finish, it's nice, things like the holes on the sides of the bumpers aren't cut out... LOL!!!

I am very aware of that, I am saying that I recommend buying the real thing, and staying far away from the Duraflex kits. But that's just me.

I had a duraflex kit on my camaro in the mail, and i pulled it out of the box and it was in pieces from shipping. I had to request a full refund. This happened twice with duraflex. I am looking at aerojacket and Shineauto very hard. They also have bumper scrape plates, anybody got any experience with those brands and the scrape plates?

I knew that. But he made it sound like Shine and AJ had them. So I thought that maybe that was a new product they started carrying.

I am going to see if I can make my own, and if I can't, then I will be ordering one from Fly1 as well (skirts guards too).
