Default JDM body kit knockoff

Was wondering about your guys opinion of this full lip JDM knockoff. Anyone have any experience with these guys? Price seems right, I just dont want to get ripped off.

Did a little digging on body kit materials, apparently fiberglass breaks easily, is that the reason you say I shouldnt get it? Would you recommend polyurethane? Forgive my ignorance.

poly or abs would be recommended, fiberglass is a pain in the ***, trust me, my family builds it! the lip kit is very hot, if you arent lowered i would say it would be ok, but if you scrape, that would be a big negative!

I would definately try to find an authentic OEM lip. I've hit quite a few things with it and it's help up perfectly fine. I know for a fact that if it was fiberglass it would've been in pieces.
