Hi i am going to replace the front end , doors and boot lid as its looking rather rusty i am stuck between fibre glass or steel , i was thinking more of the fibre glass parts as it wont rust + lighter

anyone know if the fibre glass is worth while ?

Thanx - Ryan

I know alot of people use fibreglass, i have it on mine and im happy. Takes a while to get it fitting right though.

Its also nice to be able to remove the front end, makes working on the engine a bit easier.

I have a complkete fibreglass shell and im more than happy with it! If you decide to replace with all steel items I have a full steel front end (less bonnet) solid boot ant 2x solid doors hiden in my lock up, been toyin with selling them, If you need them, make me an offer!
