not necessarily cuz urathane is harder to paint and with fiberglass you can repair the bumper eaiser, but with urathane you usaly have to buy a whole new bumper

unless you know how to glass and paint you will be paying for repairs at some point in the future... especialy if your low. 1 rock or bumped curb and it cracks like hell.
