body kit material

[zoomn_e30]

considering the material used for a body kit ..

which would be better / stronger ?

ABS Plastic or Fiberglass ?

 

[VANCE]

use abs. the fiberglass is very easy to crack.

if abs plastic is the same as polyurethane, go with the abs plastic. Fiberglass is cheaper, but more fragile. Might not be as important on sideskirts or even the rear bumper, but you'll really appreciate it on the front bumper.

The Stillen website used to have good reasons explaining why they used polyurethane instead of fiberglass for their bodykits.

sounds good .. abs plastic it is .. is there such thing as a rear splitter for the rear bumper ? yenno that piece of plastic that gives that extra protection for the bumper just in case you hit a dip ?
