need advice on getting front bumper.. if people could please give me some advice..
 
i really want to get the Greddy front bumper on my coupe but i keep reading on the posts that good majority of bodykits are fiberglass. and they crack, chip, and just get damaged easily.. is fiberglass more fragile in the winter? i don't know if that is true? does anyone have fiberglass bumpers? any issues? i have a 06 coupe 6mt with the sport front bumper... if there was a nice lip for my car i would get that but i cant seem to find any front lips for my car since its the oem sport bumper.. any suggestions.. would appreciate it. thanks

You need a longer thread title...

Jk.. Seriously, its true the fiberglass/carbon fiber bumpers are fvcking crap.. It will annoy the sh1t out of you.. I can go off so much on this subject from my own experience but I'm not going to get myself pissed off on it lol..

Goodluck.

Front Bumpers....what not to buy!
 
Had I purchased a fiberglass bumper it would have been gone months ago.
My Kuruma Z bumper is urethane, painted correctly it will withstand all kinds
of abuse....and has! Don't buy anything but urethane, it won't be worth it!

+1

Your car will slowly start to look more and more ghetto with fiberglass crap.. Even painting the fiberglass itself is a total b1tch

u can down grade n get a non sport bumper and get oem or data lip. the sport bumper is actually pretty nice looking.

body kits - urethane for sure nothing else..fiberglass is DOO-doo after some time.
headaches for days!

as for other choices, i think a nismo front is sudtle and jdm, but not stock...nice touch.

If you are not low you will be fine with fiberglass, im dumped and have a fiberglass bumper, if you fuk up a fiberglass bumper its a whole lot easier to fix than urethane, IMO they both have their pros and cons, really doesn't matter to me, i just gotta be a lil more careful witha fiberglass front, unfortunatly my bumper doesn't come in urethane and it's the only front bumper i'd run on my car so im screwed.
