#285861 sneaky (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 53 Fairings Plastic or Fiberglass 1 Year, 12 Months ago   Well I still believe this site is contagious, I got the fever for a fairing with stereo. My question is Plastic or Fiberglass ? Is the quality of the plastic like the one from Wide Open Customs as good as the Fiberglass one from Hoppe Industries. Is the plastic holding up to miles on the road with vibration ect. is it flimsy or solid. I know there is a big cost difference between the two but I am interested in the quality and pros and cons of either. I have a Polaris Ranger that takes a beatin on a regular basis and its entire body is plastic and has never had a crack in it.   Logged     Spencer Whitmire Avon Park, Florida   The administrator has disabled public write access. #285869 Capt.Kirk (User) "Beam me up Scotty and keep it on two wheels" Gold Boarder Posts: 839 Re:Fairings Plastic or Fiberglass 1 Year, 12 Months ago   Hey sneaky; completely off topic: how do you post a new topic?

That should be a good indication. Fiberglass is good but may be heavier and not all plastics are equal. ABS is very strong. Remember though, you usually get what you pay for.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #285874 sneaky (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 53 Re:Fairings Plastic or Fiberglass 1 Year, 12 Months ago   Capt.Kirk wrote: Hey sneaky; completely off topic: how do you post a new topic?

I had no problems with it at all. We did have a member with a WOC that cracked at the mounting brackets but they fixed it for him. The only complaint I had was the windshield that comes with them is jink. I modified a Clearview to fit it and problem solved. Good luck and enjoy which ever way you go.   Logged     \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"A mind full of judgment has little room for wisdom\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"   The administrator has disabled public write access. #286257 Booster (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 913 Re:Fairings Plastic or Fiberglass 1 Year, 12 Months ago   I have the Reckless also, very light for fiberglass and cheaper than the others that I have found.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #286753 weldvair (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 52 Re:Fairings Plastic or Fiberglass 1 Year, 11 Months ago   Fiberglass is repairable, ABS is not.
