Default Type of body kit......

I just recently bought a 94 GT that I am replacing the engine in, after I'm done with that I was wanting to put a body kit on it with a new paint job. Only problem is idk what type of kit to go with, the FRP (fiber reinforced polymer) or a fiberglass kit. I'm just looking for any insight on which kit would be best to buy, so any experiences with either type of kits would be much appreciated. I was also thinking of having the car painted black with white racing stripes. So, what does anyone out there think. Thanks guys.

Yes urethane is the way to go. It is very flexible and more durable than fiberglass.

I'm not so sure about the racing stripes...if anything do silver but I think it would look a lot cleaner just black.

Make sure they use flex additive in the paint or you'll get spider cracks in the paint real easily.
