Default What are stock Civic Bumpers Made Of?

ABS Plastic, Fiberglass, Urethane?

Is there anyone that sells them in Fiberglass, Urethane, or even Carbon Fiber?

They are made of ABS plastic from the factory. There are companies that make bodykits out of urethane and fiberglass and carbon fiber. You can even get a whole front end in one peice fiberglass. I don't believe that anyone makes the stock covers in any other material but plastic though. Hope this helps
