Funds, or other priorities I guess. I'm married, only working part-time, and going to school full-time. I just got my Impul sides a few weeks ago too. I'll probably have them painted sometime in the Summer.

Hold up on getting that Kuruma painted, is it Poly? I just got around to taking mine to get painted today, I purchased it from Chris on September 14 last year (Havent needed the extra airflow until now lol). My painter refused to touch it because the Poly has serious cracks in it and there's no way for them to prevent the cracks from showing through the final paint. He told me it's some of the worst material he's ever seen and he cant believe I paid more than $50 for it currently trying to figure out what Outcast garage's return policy is.

Can't they fill them? Mine looks fine the way it came.

And is he saying that poly is some of the worst material he's seen?

I'm not sure, they are pressure "cracks" in the material, crevasses that are kinda of all over the bumper, but mostly where the bends are.

He said the quality of the polyurethane is very low, and that most aftermarket body part manufacturers have 4 bins that they place parts in when they come out of the mold, based on the quality of the piece, and that this one probably came out of the lowest quality bin
