depends what kind of fiberglass, I'm running a fiberglass kit right now with a 2" ground clearance. As long as you watch out for potholes, the kit CAN take a bit of pounding.

EDIT: Mugen kit on a TSX

You do realize almost every aftermarket bumper for the S is FRP (fiberglass) right??? I do agree that it will not take a lot of abuse and is easier to damage than urethan, but there are quite a few members that DD their cars with FRP bumpers/kits.
