Greddy is FRP, if I recall correctly. Like everyone else stated my personal understanding why all of the big name Japanese Kit makers make their kits out of FRP is to save money. Fiberglass is cheaper and easier to work with, as far as repairs but I wish that they would make something in Poly, personally that is the reason why I am still sticking with my TTE for so long. I have finally decided to bite the bullet and switch it up so hopefully will be debuting something new and one off next year. Poly is much better it is more resistant to damage, I have cracked my stock bumper but the lip was still fine. I recently hit a huge chunk of rubber on the highway, the hit was so bad that it flexed my stock bumper and broke the poly mold on the side where it was hit but the lip has nothing on it except some missing paint. Poly is the way to go if you can.
