What is the Difference between A Urathane Body kit and a Fiber Glass one? Which one is better?

urathane is more flexable like your stock bumpers but heavyer then fiberglass and fiberglass will crack very easy and if you get in an accident its bye bye for that kit

Pay the extra for the poly urethane. Like hero said, it's flexible and won't crack and go to shit if you hit a bug on the highway.

I was just in my local body shop and they showed me a car that got rear-ended. Pretty surprising considering the rear bumper looked fine. It was...but the frame was pretty bent and other stuff was smashed in. Just a good example of it holding up better (keep in mind that was a stock bumper on a different car).

Is it really a big differnce of the both. Because I have enough for a fiberglass kit as we speak. But I need some more for a urethene. Does good things come to people who wait?

Wait and get a urethane kit. If you hit anything with the fiberglass, you'll be waiting for money to buy a replacement. Might as well do it right the first time.
