if you get it done now id think youd be ok... are you gonna drive it in the winter? because you need to watch the body kit if you do... if you get a poly urathane bumper if will get hard at really cold temps and it cracks easier. not necissarily easy, but easier.

I would wait so that your body kit has more time that a month or so to adjust.

why do u say it would be worth it? fiberglass breakes real easy, i had urethane on my car and i know i ganged it pretty bad againnst those cement things that devide parking spaces, (those big ass bumps u dont know r there till u hit em) and it didnt break, and when i was recently in a bad accident, my whole fiberglass fender shattered and the bumper barely got a crack

I would definately stick to urethane if you're going to make that thing a daily driver. If your going trailer queen then fiberglass is just fine.
