Polyurethane or Fiberglass vs price for future G37 bumper lips

Whats up guys,

I'm intersted in manufacturing some front bumper lips for the G37, S to be specific. I want to see what kind of interest I can get from you guys. Heres my first and main question...

Would you guys be willing to pay $550 for a polyurethane lip, or $400 for a fiberglass lip?

What do you think would sell quicker, and would be more popular among the G37 drivers.

Please chime in,

Thanks.

Poly Urethane is more flexible and durable. Fiberglass is cheaper, but it can easily be cracked and damaged.
