Urethane is the one that should be purchased, because it's by far the most durable.

Yeah, other company's make fiberglass copies. The best thing from an OEM would be Urethane.

yes, urethane is the best choice but how many people are gonna say "i'll definitely buy it if it comes out" and when it does they have an excuse for not buying the bumper because they dont want to spend that much money or dont have that much to spend.

i'm not saying the price is out of the ordinary because that's how much a kouki 180SX front bumper and accessories is in the range after all necessary items are purchased. i'm just saying that i dont think that as much people that say they will buy the bumper when it comes out will actually do so for being broke or other reasons.

its great to see Nissan still wanting to produce items that people actually want for older cars like ours.

I vote for carbon kevlar because that would be very durable while keeping weight at a minimum. Also it would be madd baller.

They should make a Kouki 180SX bumper without the license plate frame.

And yes on the urethane.

Why not fiberglass?

The fiberglass looks great to me, but then I haven't seen it in person at this point. I have my past experience with Corvettes to draw on only.

Can someone explain why I should not buy fiberglass? Any pictures?

I would say, yes on the urethane but at a very very affordable price then they can make the fiberglass a little cheaper then the cost of the urethane and they would be set. My .02 cents
