    whats the weight difference in a steel rollpan and a fiberglass rollpan? because theres a cheap steel one i might want to buy, but i dunno if its worth it because of weight differences.

    A nice thing about steel is you can bend it how you like if need be.

    i have a steel and urithan pan. the weight differences are neglectable....the steel is just barely heavier.

    i think thats the one im gonna go with. does it come in that color? or does it come flat black? how much do you think it would cost to paint just the bumper?
