Urethane:
Flexible so won't crack if you hit something
NORMALLY cheaper
Easy to install
Unrepairable
WHEN THE WEATHER GETS HOT, URETHANE TENDS TO SAG.
urethane is harder to prep and paint

Fiberglass:
NOT flexible - will crack if you hit something
Since its not flexible, the kit must fit perfect since you can't really do much with it
Repairable
will not bend/warp during shipping
heavier than the urethane

I would perfer fiberglass over urethane because of its versatility where can it be modified in many ways. Its your choice on what type you want to go with but also remember, that you get what you pay for, quality cost more, but in the long run its well worth it.
