Fiberglass door question?

Five0 · 09-14-2001, 08:34 PM

I was think about replacing my doors worth fiberglass doors and want the opinions of anyone who has done this, seen it done, or know anything about it.

As most of you know, my car got hit recently and I have had it appraised at $3000 in damage.

I can get it fixed for less than that but I need a new door on one side and would like to replace both with fiberglass if it will still look good and shave off some weight.

My questions are:
1. How much weight does it save?
2. Will it look factory?
3. Will all the accessories including electric windows bolt up?
4. Where can you find a good set of fiberglass doors?
5. How much do they go for?

Thanks anyway!
