It's made of urethane, what do you think it's supposed to be like :squint: . It's more durable that way.

When I ordered mine,... the front lip came in in a box that was a bit bigger than a shoe box.

My Coupe kit came wrapped and folded in a box, I removed the pieces and let them stretch out. Then I placed old tires on the garage floor and forced the kit into the position it would have on the car. My kit sat around for a good couple of weeks before it went on the car.

Weird, mine came in a huge box, all the pieces were in the right shape when I got it.

I don't think WWest has the most strict shipping standards.
I have had many a friend send a WWest bumper or what-not back do to severe warping from packaging. Maybe Schmiddy lucked out and got his stuff in a pre-painted kit box instead of the standard box. My kit came with JDM wagon install directions, I called wings west and they stated this was ok and that all installs were the same, their tech support sucked, period.

I couldn't complain to much got the full kit for under $400 from a friend at the time clearing inventory. I eventually switched to Honda OE Body Kit sides b/c I hated the fit of the WWest units.
