I was actually considering that front bumper, found it on ebay. However, what's up with that area by the parking light? Wouldn't that just have to be cut out for it to fit correctly?

FRP stands for Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (if im not mistaken)
This is the material used in all basic body kits that I know of. It will be the least expensive kit out there and is super easy to fix if you have even a little body skill. But it is the typical fiberglass material so no bending/twisting/offroading or abuse will happen with out consequences...
my personal experience with it is as stands:
rubbing/scrapping all ya worry about is paint. you'll hear it crack, and you definately wont like the sound although it usually sounds worse than it ends up being. parking stops and curb are a big thing to think about as well as bad bumps and steep drives at more than cautious speeds. over all it wasn't till i stopped carrying that i brought out the zipties and duct tape instead of fixing and being cautious

yeah i remember being on the side of I-4 to fix your front bumper. awesome trip though. but some of these places show them twisting FRP bumpers and them not breaking or crcking. maybe i meant FPR
