Okay... first Duraflex is still fiberglass, don't be fooled into thinking your car can be indestructible with a Duraflex front bumper. I would not advise fiberglass in the front for fear of cracking/breaking it easily. I think this does depend on the QUALITY though. My 996 has a TechArt fiberglass front that seems quite durable. But then we're talking about a $6,000 bumper. However, I've also seen tons of cheap Japanese crap busted up easily.
Second, the Duraflex bumper on the website given:

and here from the manufacturer:

Is NOT even a Duraflex bumper. How do I know, because that's MY car in those photos (which BTW I had no idea was being used for their photos). The front bumper pictured is actually a Porsche GT3 OEM bumper, which fit perfectly and is a more resilient plastic rather than fiberglass or Duraflex. Get one of these, someone in Atlanta is actually selling one right now here on 986forum:
