2007 Yaris Liftback (USA) - Plastic Bumper?

Does the US 2007 liftback have plastic or fiberglass bumpers? The reason I ask is that I already have 3 or 4 small paint chips on my front bumper and am concerened that they may start to corrode and rust.

Edit:
I know that plastic doesn't rust. What I meant was that if it had a metal bumper, the chips might start to corrode and rust.

Ok. I only asked if it was plastic or fiberglass because I know that if the bumper is either plastic of fiberglass, it won't rust. Also, read my edit.

I know. But why ask? I mean, will it affect how you plan on fixing the chips?

I asked because I was not sure if the bumper was really plastic or metal.

I thought this was a public forum where people are free to ask questions? Why ask why I asked?

If you don't like me asking, don't read the thread.
