I noticed that when i did the fiberglass bumper that it chip like crazy almost to the point that in 2 days of having it on my car it looked terrible. I am just wondering if anyone else experienced this. The side skirts wheel well area also chipped like crazy from the rocks shooting off the tires. Is there any special way to paint fiberglass bumpers or side skirts where the paint actually doesn't chip away at such a high rate that the bumper is almost down to the orginal color..What is the oem bumper made out of plastic? The worst part of the story is that my car is not even a daily driver but i drove it when it has the kit on it for 2 days and then almost cried when i saw my front bumper and side skirts.
