Fiberglass help

So I'm thinking about replacing my stock bumper for a fiberglass one. From duraflex, I just want to know general things that I should be aware of before I do buy it. Also should I just go carbon fiber? And if you've already gotten fiberglass, how much was it total? For the figment and everything? This is going to be the first aftermarket thing im going to add. I'm scared haha

It's about an extra hundred bucks for poly and if your already spending the cash I advise you to go poly.

Your painter will say the same . Installed can be done in your garage.

serious get a poly bumper. i got a corvette that has a fiberglass body. the stuff is sooo brittle. fiber glass cracks very easily. i was backing out and barely rubbed a pole. it cracked my rear quarter panel next to my rear bumper. i had to get my rear bumper and quarter panel fixed and painted.
