some of your info isnt true at all, i donno if it was a typo or what but...

for 1 fiberglass is much cheaper.

urethane is about the same difficulty to install, the only problem is if urethane doesnt fit perfect, it will bow/bend and wont look right

fiberglass is much easier to fit if theres a problem because any decent bodyshop can cut and remold fiberglass whereas if urethane doesnt fit correct you are really screwed.

he was correct that urethane is flexable, the only thing is that your paint will crack when your fender bends, it spiderwebs pretty bad if you bend it, speaking from experience.

most stock bumpers are made of a urethane composite.
