Kaminari. They fit and they're urethane. Haven't heard of a single problem with them yet. Moving to show and shine.

From what I took talking to the guys there, they have made TONS of these kits, going through a bunch of molds, as they keep wearing out.
NE one know which material expands/contracts more in weather variations?

So everyone agrees that the Kaminari is the best kit due to the fact that it is made out of urethane how about accolade urethane kits? Or does accolade just totally sucks?

Kaminari is definitely the best for fitment and quality. Accolade has variety, but there's mixed comments on that company. If you search around, you'll see that they used to be crap and got lots of complaints, but there's been good comments on their new kits lately. I've never experienced an accolade kit, so I'd ask the members here who have.

what about PFRP??? Its flexible like urethane, but is a totally different compound. Its also kind of a new material, so I don't know what history you can get about it...

From what I hear, PFRP is some kinda superplastic that is very flexible and hard to break. I understand that's the material Accolade manufactures their kits with.

Then you probably wanna go for the kaminari kit, no other kit is even competition when it comes to quality and fitment. I haven't heard a single complaint on kaminari kits.
