I was wondering if its worth spending a little extra for a Urethane front lip or if I should just settle with an ABS Plastic one. I've never gotten one of these type r front lips, but I know urethane is supposedly unbreakable. I'm just questioning how durable an ABS plastic lip would be. Anyway, I have a 00 Civic thats pretty slammed (2" drop), but I can always raise it a bit because I have coilovers. Also, the area I live in has many hills and pot holes. Do you guys have any suggestions?

 

deffently urethane, i had a plastic one and it didnt last 1 month

 

Ive had an abs oem lip for 2yrs - no problems

 

all depends on how prone you are to running into/ over things. the plus side to the urethane is that it will bounce right back into place, the downside is if you live in a part of the u.s. with high heats, it could eventually deform. but you live in maryland so you should be ok with getting urethane. the abs plastic however in cold conditions can become brittle

 

yea thanks a lot. I'm going to go with the urethane lip just to be on the safe side. I mean i wouldn't want the lip to break and have to get it repainted or something.

 

If you live in cold environment ABS will crack easier. All plastics in colder weather tends to be more brittle.
