urethane is what stock parts are made from, much stronger but heavier
fiberglass is cheaper/thinner some times and prone to crack but its also lighter a bit
urethane is the best for body kits IMO, I dont like fiberglass at all, you will be pissed when you hit that first bump and destroy/crack the fiberglass one

one big advantage of fiberglass: you can mod it for custom lights, etc. its also easy to repair for when you eventually crack it.;)

the 1st owner of my car tried to fix the urethane(stock)front w/ fiberglass and he couldn't so it's not unbreakable it but on the other hand go to your car and press the front or rear a little it'll move if you do it w' fiberglass it won't you can even break it i would say if you get urethane ,wing west or stillen( front only) expensive 450-500 but i heard they both fit really well my 2 cents

Urethane is somewhat better because it's pretty flexible.
