Anyone have any experience with FRP? How well does it paint? Is it better or worse that what comes stock? Should body shops know what FRP means? Should I tell them that it should be treated as plastic or polyurathane?
Just got my Central20 bumper and I need to figure out how to get the darn thing painted now.

FRP is much like fiberglass (fiber reinforced plastic), maybe slightly more durable than traditional fiberglass. Any bodyshop should know how to paint it (as far as the correct amount of a flex agent, etc.).
The Nismo body kit (both authentic and knockoff's) are FRP. You can do a search for paint and the Nismo body kit and likely get some better information. I know there have been some post about it.
