So its my 21st birthday next week so i may treat myself to some new fibreglass doors, just wondering if anyone has used them before and what they think of them? my steel doors are starting to get in pretty bad shape so i was considering fibreglass so i dont have to worry about rust. what are your opinions guys?

apparently fibreglass flexs alot on the doors, no experience myself but i wouldnt like fibreglass doors in an accident either, if i was you i would fix the steel doors or save up for some carbon fibre ones :)

I have heard they flex but arc angels make hardened ones which they say are perfect for everyday road use, so I'm abit iffy as to whether to get them or not

I've got some of the doors and they are pretty good. Just remember you cant use winder mechanisms in them so you'll have to have sliding windows or fixed. The other thing is that they take a bit of fettling to fit, if i was to do it again i would of just got my old ones re-skinned.
