if its an actual front bumper you want to stay away form abs. it cracks and breaks and cant be fixed even as easily as fiberglass. you want to find a urethane bumper if possible. they will flex and not crack. urethane is what the stock bumper is made out of. serious though if its a whole bumper replacement stay away from ABS plastic
