the plastic is way better(for me at least) cause it wont break , unlike fiberglass, which could break easy
the only drilling you r doing will be on the lip itself...its quite easy to install if you got a lift for the car
good luck

Here is a "mini How To" I did in someone's else's thread on the installation:

Some of these lips come pre-drilled. If it is not pre-drilled, then the trickiest part is getting the holes lined up correctly. You will still need to drill at least one hole in each fender.

Get the Poly, the Fiberglass cracks too easily. It's pre-drilled and come with the mounting hardware. Just remove some of the bolts from the front bumper and put the mounting hardware in it's place. takes about 10-15 mins.

Whats up, I have the Urethane lip from Spugen. Love it. Scrape all the rime, and still looks brand new (bottom is scraped to sh!t, but cant been seen only felt if you run your hand.)

It DOES NOT come predrilled, although the drilling is really easy.

The poly lips don't come predrilled but not that hard once you have another pair of hands to hold in place. Poly is the way to go.

Anybody got any tips for making the lip fit around the side? Got a shop to do mine and they cant get it perfect at the 2 sides. I got no screws with it so its only on with the 2 sided tape, although it looks great until you get up close.

Urethane is the way to go, much more durable.

Mine was not pre-drilled, and was a b**tch to do by myself.

Definatley would be much easier with a lift and an extra set of hands.
