Anyone know if the REAL C-West kit is fiberglass?

I know some of you guys have the REAL C-West N1 kit, a friend told me that he thinks at least the front is polyurethane, but I always thought the front was fiberglass... Which one is it, fiberglass or polyurethane?? Thanks in advance..

As far as I know all you can get in polyureathane is the stock bumper and the '99 upgrade from Mazda.

stock bumpers are not urethane, they are plastic. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. If they made urethane that thin, it wouldn't hold up. Also, wings west knightsport copy is urethane

what up black99????? LOL! Ok fellas, I got a few things I'd like to input on this. First off, not all JDM body kits are fiberglass. I have a Greddy lip on my Accord, and it is polyurethane. I'm not saying they don't us fiberglass, because I also just recently bought a Mugen grille for it, and it is fiberglass. A lot of the companies are using polyurethane, which is a form of plastic RedTT. I know C-West does used poly on some of their kits, and other companies like Buddy Club and Trust are also using it. All we want to know is if anyone out there has the real honest to God C-West N1 bumper, and if so, what is it made of please. Thanks, SLIM
