PU > RS1, I've had the PU (PolyUrethane) lip for over a year now and IMHO it is the ideal material a front lip should be made of if you lower your car. I've scraped countless times due to how much lower it is than stock and the flexibility of the lip really helps, it will never crack. Here's what mines still looks like after a year of scrapage:

PU if you're going to scrape a lot. Used both and trust me, go with PU. (if you plan on scraping A LOT).
Several flaws with the PU:
1. Heavy
2. Not 100% OEM fit
3. Will need to do a good paint job on it if planning to paint
Goods:
1. Full polyurethane (rubber status) so no worries of breaking it
2. No vents and don't need to worry about molding in the vents
3. Aggressive look
*Using RS1 or PU, if you plan on being slammed, the lip will go up or down no matter how much you use a double sided tape.
My ride with the PU lip (front is sagging a bit b/c I scrape daily and when I mean scraping daily, I really do mean daily. Going to fix this issue). All around, the car is even lowered more so my foot doesn't go through b/w the front lip and ground.
I've been through 4 RS1 lips because of it breaking into half after scraping so much and I do know how to angle when going on ramps, bumps, etc. But if you are planning not to be slammed, just go with it.
