i cant imagine what will happen when your bumper lightly skims the ground when going up a steep ramp. luckly you arent faced with snow, it would break off within minuites

It will eventually crack as it does not contain a good adhesion/flex characteristic agent as polyurethane or fiberglass can obtain. -------------------- ![]() |
