Can you mold a urethane bumper into a fiberglass body? Or will it inevitably crack?

How about using SMC filler?

Not from what I've read... I have no personal experience combining the two, but when I was checking it out a few years ago the word was that fiberglass to fiberglass was the only way to go. Urethane and the Flex stuff are too pliable to hold the bond is what I was told.
