Ground FX and interior

I'm looking for a place to get a full set of 89' Iroc ground fx, front nose, rear bumper cover, full set of black interior panels and black carpet. I don't mind paying a little higher prices for good stuff.. What would be better to get for the ground fx, the rubber/plastic that gm used or fiberglass?
Just got a raise and my tax return is coming soon, so its time to load up.

well, actually in that year the ground effects for the iroc, and the RS were all the same, except the nose piece, and id say fiberglass will be just as good as any

actually, the GM door panel GFX on trans ams were fiberglass, the rubber was used for parts that were lowest to the ground. fiberglass should be fine for everything but the front/rear bumper covers, since you want those to be able to give a little in case you get bumped, catch a curb or those wheel blocks in parking spaces that are a little higher than normal... rubber gives, sometimes i guess it could crack the paint, but fiberglass can get really torn up.
