I cleaned up the thread a bit... no more links to accolade's site (hence no advertising). This thread is STRICTLY for information on the new type of material the kit is made of. OZRallyguy, if u have nothing CONSTRUCTIVE to say, please dont say anything. Also, to everyone, please dont bring up anything about Accolade the COMPANY, just discuss the new type of material that is being used. Thanks guys.

i really dont think anythings funny. they cant advertise here and its fine to talk about materials. no problem there. i was just stating that adding a link to sell was prohibited here. thanks Iamkar33m ! i think there quote at the bottem of their posts could be advertising though. i states customers and has email address to buy kits. sorry to be so picky but i pay to advertise and they dont. that isnt fair

ozrally i apperciate the way you've changed your attitude towards discussing your disposition with accolade. if everyone would improve their attitude i think there might actually be enough business to go around! long live free enterprise!!

oh and to keep this post on topic, exactly how much more expensive will a kit be made of PFRP as compared to fiberglass/hpp?

A bumper with that much flex worries me. I have a feeling that it will wrinkle or warp when installed. It might even sag over time.

Can't be certain how the new materials hold up, since I've never heard of this before. Although it might be more crack and shatter resistant, I don't want a wavy bumper.

Any FACTUAL information available to either back up or discredit my thoughts? Please don't bombard me with "this product is so good" or "will never warp or crease." Lets have some facts for a change and not a sales pitch.

EDIT: Upon reading my own post, I feel that I come off as sounding hostile. I'm not trying to be, just making sure it's clear that all I want to hear is the TRUTH. I'm sure many other will agree with me on that.

Will it wrinkel? Because here in Oklahoma, it gets very very hot and I dont want it getting wrinkled or anything like that.
