...the full s-style one, and it's only 400 bucks, which is in my price range, so if polyfiber is good enough let me know.

ok, but say i'm a teenager who works at mcdonalds for 6.25 an hour and isn't legally allowed to work more than 30 hours a week, will fiberglass work as long as i don't scrape or anything?

HMUSN · May 4th, 2007, 05:32 PM

pretty much.

alright, i mean, i'm lookin at getting a fed-ex warehouse job for the summer, so if i get that i'll go for the urethane. if i don't get it then i'll give the fiberglass a shot, and if it doesn't work, then i'll have a convincing story against fiberglass for any other teenager with the same brilliant idea as myself, lol.

Poly fiber is not another name for fiberglass it is fiber reinforced polymer or fiberglass that is a little more flexible and takes paint a little easier than traditional fiberglass .... its def. not full poly urethane which is the most durbable and easier to paint of the two ...
