Doesn't Eurothane crack worse than fiberglass? ESPECIALLY in cold weather. :paranoid:

no fiberglass is the one that cracks but is cheap to repair. Eurothane will bend up to a point but once it breaks its done for. As for the temp, i'm sure when its cold it doesn't bend as well.

actually that's what the stock bumpers are made off with more sulfur (sp??) so it's not that flexible

www.extremedimensions.com maybe they'll have it in urethane. They have lots of kits and I know a lot of them are urethane and blue class.

Speaking of blue class, is it paintable at all?? I only ever see it being that light blue color in ads.:crazy:

Actually, URETHANE (not eurothane) kits are pretty rare. I am pretty sure that Buddy Club only makes theirs in fiberglass. I saw a site a while ago, advertising kits in Neo-Urethane that were basically just replication kits in urethane. If you can find that site, they may have the Buddy Club in urethane.

And actually, urethane is very flexible. That's what makes it so much better than fiberglass. When you hit a bump, or something, it flexes instead of cracking like fbglass.

yeah.. my front lip is urethane, and i stand 100% behind urethane... ive outlasted every one of my frinds who owns a fiberglass front by at least 6-8 months.. and i never had a problem with my front.
