Mine came painted factory color. So unless you're running BBY, go authentic.

I recently contemplated it, but didn't want to support knock off companies. Support authentic parts distributors and sellers.

FRP stands for Fiberglass Reenforced plastic. I found it to be a little less flexible that oem, but still very good IMO

Okay so its not like ABS plastic or urethane. A medium between them and true fiberglass?

FRP is the new fiberglass for bumpers made overseas. It's just slightly more flexible and a bit more crack resistant.
