Urethane bodykits advantages???

I just wanted to know what are the advantages of the Urethane bodykits since I have seen that the Urethane parts are more expensive. I don't really know much about this so I would appreciate the help. Thank you!

the best is they can take a beating cuz it bends a bit and can absorb impact without cracking.

think of urethane as rubber or such
remeber those garbage can commercials or like the saturn commercial.
then think of fiberglass as all those riced out civics look with chipped up bumper,skirt,rear,fenders,etc.,
