ok... so what are the DISADVANTAGES of fiberglass GT flares as opposed to steel fender flares? this would be for primarily a fun track car (non-competative, just HPDE) maybe occasional street use very seldom.
Should I avoid something with fiberglass? or is it not really a big deal ? |

For a track car I would use fiberglass - you can get bigger flares and if you rivet them on they are a whole lot easier to replace if you break one. If I do a track car it will have FG flares - the street car is going to be steel.
