shotgun bumper

at first i was disappointed because this bumper was made of fiberglass and i wanted the kaminari bumper from the start, but after looking at pictures that was posted on crazylegz, i feel that the shotgun was the better choice and did research on fiberglass and it is not as bad as people has say it is

I saw a picture of a hood "half" covered...And you could tell it was on you could see the edge.... same colors just you could see the edge
But if you had the whole bumper covered you wouldnt be able to tell..

I heard about that stuff but its pricey. I saw it on a Lexus here in town you cant see it on light colors but dark colors you can but if your doing your whole front bumper you should be ok
