Fun Facts!! Estonia's capital Tallinn is the best preserved medieval city in Northern Europe. Estonia speaks Estonian... as well as English, Russian, Finnish and German. Estonia is about 50% forest. Sorry lol, just thought that it was cool that you're from Estonia.. Btw, you can get that bumper cheaper off eBay and as long as it's polypropylene, go for it...

ABS plastic is good.
Both PP and ABS have pluses and minuses. PP is very close/similar to OEM as it flexes very easily. ABS is plastic, but a good plastic that also flexes, but is more rigid. Some people prefer ABS because it is more rigid/sturdy and it doesn't have the tendency to warp in the heat as PP. Both are solid choices. Avoid fiberglass, duraflex, or FRP like the plague. I haven't seen e90 stuff offered in ABS too often which why some e90 guys are biased towards Poly Propelyne... In the e39 world and e36 world, ABS is the preferred choice as the PP bumpers can warp very easily if not taken care of. You can definitely reuse the fender liners. It's not going to be perfect as it's a different bumper, but it'll work and bolt on for the most part. People only get the matching fender liners if they have disposable income or super anal about being OEM +. |
