I'm looking at the Cobra bumper for the LX made by Wings West. Its made out of urethane. What are the pros/cons of urethane vs. fiberglass? Thanks.

urethane is more forgiving when it comes to impacts, plus it's stronger. Fiberglass is a lot "harder" of a material and is more brittle.
on the flip side I have seen poorly made urethane pieces warp and sag making them look like total ass. I have no clue what the quality of the wings west pieces are.
You'll be fine with a fiberglass wing. Fiberglass bumper covers are another story. But when was the last time you heard someone w/a fiberglass hood complain that it broke all of a sudden?
That's a good point, but hoods don't get bumped like bumpers can. That said, there's been some nice glass bumpers made but i'd prefer urathane.
