i plan on eventually swapping over to blitz body kit probably with rdora side skirts or something along those lines and i saw on ebay some bumpers called "plastic Fiber" so i asked them what that was as i'd never heard of it and the picture showd them bending bumper in half so i was intrigued to say the least. when i asked they said it was also known as duraflex and it was a type of fiberglass mixed with plastic an resin so that it was much more durable. what i'm wondering is if i should just wait for the extra 200$s (which will be a while) and the extra money on paint to get the urethane (the nice thing about these is they came gel coated white so i wouldn't look to bad if i couldn't afford paint immediatly. but my car is a daily driver and as Pwee has pointed out many times by his poor kits demise fiberglass is worthless on a lowered eclipse.

In short has anyone used duraflex/plastic fiber and would it be anything comparable to urethane?
