99% of the time it done with glass.
However some guys do plastic weld the bumpers, which IMO is the "right" way to do it as there is less chance of it cracking or having issues.

Depends how you do the fenders and esp. how much your planning to widen... A lot of fender work creates a lot of bumper work tbh, some get away with a little stretching and some just cutting and reshaping.

Hi,
Im planning to lower my car too and do a little of fender pulling too but I don't understand whether the bumper will be pulled too together [or is it possible to pull the bumper too together with a little bit of heating on the bumper] or is the bumper a separate work to be done ?
Something like this:
Attachment 4120
Attachment 4125
Attachment 4124
Attachment 4122
Attachment 4126
And my preferred one,
I need this type of fender rolling:
Attachment 4121
Thank You

Don't think you'd need to worry about the bumper too much for rolling and pulling since that wouldn't widen too significantly, whereas widening the body can be quite significant.
