ABS plastic is ****.. Urethane is better though. ABS plastic is constructed by a bunch of plastics basically compressed to create a form for a bumper or a lip. Urethane is much more durable than ABS plastic. As well, you can't heat-treat ABS plastic as you can with urethane.. ABS plastic will melt a hell of alot easier than urethane.

Our stock bumpers are ABS plastic.. Unfortunately they are less flexible than some may think, too!
