euro and U.S. coroplast are the same.

Oh yes, sorry, I meant flammable!

Yes, right... you can burn a lot of things with direct flame, and I'm sure you had not a single problem...
but all the car is made of self-extinguishable materials, so that when the flame is removed, the flame stops.
But I was really surprised to see the coroplast burning so suddendly and quickly even after removing the flame, so IMHO I won't use it and prefer aluminum:
I won't risk a burned car for an idiot throwing a butt on some dry grass


PS: thanks for the correction, I really like to improve my English!

Been reading this thread and you gave me a lot of ideas! I really need to do something about the rear section of my car, the rear bumper is an authentic parachute!

Then very similar to mine. The body kit lowered the lip 2 inches all around the car. Creating a serious issue with the rear bumper.
