Default Fibreglass bodyparts?

And I don't mean a fibreglass dick.

Is fibreglass reasonably light?? Also, I assume it's cheaper than carbon fibre?

Where can I get a fibreglass bonnet / boot made up for my Mk5 Fiesta? Is there any advantage of this, i.e does it save weight.

Cheers

Well I suppose they do save weight, but they wear with age and the paintjob usually ends up looking kak.

MC Rallying used to do a lot of fibreglass stuff if they're still going, I assume they are.
