VERSUS URETHANE DRIFT BODY KIT LINK
It appears Gravana is trying their best to help.
We are trying. We will see what happens. We also have a GP for just the Versus Front Bumpers since so many people want them.

I think im gonna pick up the urethane front this summer for my car
wow
there's gonna be a drift explosion similar to the lambo door one we've seen lately
i love the kit...i wish i had a urethane front tho.. or some money to buy one with...
well w/ my experience w/ the versus urethane kit...i wish i went w/ fiberglass.... the front fit good.. the sides didnt fit worth @!#$ ... they did but they interfered with operation of the doors alot....body shops couldnt adjust doors to clear... and i thought it was just my car ..so i put them on my girls sunfire...same exact problems in same places....if they were fiberglass i sanded grinded and trimmed to look ok and be fine...urethane..different story ...such a long drawn out process to make fit..and still looks half assed .... ..(wasnt aware of the duramix paste at the time) Then came time to paint... urethane doesnt paint the same as fiberglass would... Apparently my body shop didnt realize this, they did however use flex agent which they thought was sufficient but when they painted it the first time i pulled in my driveway i drug my kit and the paint actually popped off most of the bumper.... i had it resprayed again and again it did the same thing. They had to sprray it with an imron paint which is urethane based (i know this isnt the only way to paint it but it was the best available solution at the time) ... and now thirdly.. Everybody claims how strong urethane is. I have a large sized crack in my side skirt..and a huge crack in my front bumper...both urethane.... I didnt hit anything on my front bumper at all.. it was caused by ice freezing on it and one morning i had a crack...and eventually it spread... which brings me to repair...urethane is sorta a pain to repair...not some bondo hair and sanding and paint..but rather u have to use fuzor or duramix or speedgrip and all 3 products arent quite cheap... they are solutions for repair but damn if u spent all this money for an "allmighty" kit that is supposed to be basically indestructible you'd think it'd withstand some winter ice?! .... my friends urethane kit on his eclipse can be folded in half and retain shape w/o problem...mine from versus would crack for sure.... not trying to down this product but giving some people some heads up advice ... I have my urethane front and sides sitting in the garage i had a fiberglass rear which has that sag by the trunk lid ... but it fit perfect and well its never given me any trouble lol.. its also in the garage.... and as the previous post... lambo doors and drift kits are the boom right now so i had to switch my style anyways ....my new fiberglass kit should be here next friday ...
I dont care if the prices or availability are making everone on the org buy drift kits and VERTICLE doors, lamborghini has no association with any of the kits and im sick of hearing them called lambos lol. but seriously, on the org everthing with verticle doors sticks out so you remember it, that doesnt mean everyone and their mother has them, look around town at your little local shows, or around town, how many people have em? i can say in my area im the only one anywhere so far. and this is also the first i have heard bad about the verses kit
THE WORLDS FIRST GAY POTATO!:Amaze and delight your friends, dress it up, take it to the cinema or just sit and admire it's firm silky buttocks and when your bored of it .. lob it in a casserole dish with some onions and carrots.

From what you wrote, I would say it is not the kit, but your body shop. My friend had a urethane kit for his Integra and had a fitting problem with the door hitting one side skirt and his body guy shaved the skirt to fit before painting it and it fit perfectly once they painted and installed it.
You probably just need to find a body shop that knows what they are doing. God knows I have met many body people who are clueless but THINK they know their stuff.
