it costs a lot more money to make it out of that material.... so she would make less money... if selling for around the same price... and if the sale price is too high, then a lot of us probably wouldnt buy it... Too many people on the org complain about high prices, and then they wonder why we don't get stuff made...

thanks. i didn't really need a lecture in marketing but i'm sure it will be good for a lot of people who will read this. i was just wondering because basically every other bumper that doesnt look 1/2 as good as this one is made in urethane and yet this one is not

we would all benefit from a urethane product since the fitment would be the same on each bumper. im no expert but fiberglass molds can be different from one bumper to the next.

i went with stillen because of the urethane, its so rough and tumble around these parts im surprised my car is still in one piece.

didn't they make the skyline in glass first then, after it caught on, made a urethane version (i could be wrong). after they sell enough glass verions (which they will) maybe it will be an option.

If i'm not mistaken that was a copywritten image.... some guy on here made that a while ago... it had a copy write for like goose designs, or something like that, in the lower right hand corner. You can see where they filled it in with black on the front wheel...

don't buy from redlinemax..

you buy from them, you have a problem, they try and take care of it, but then don't follow through. on top of that, they take the said product off the market for redesign because they realized they were wrong, but still won't refund any money. fiberglass bumpers take work, but warped fiberglass bumpers should be refunded.

don't buy from redlinemax..
