Winter and a fiberglass hood?
Hi everyone, I was just wondering if there is anything I should worry about with a 2" fiberglass cowl hood in the winter? I got it from usbody.com. Could it crack really easy or anything? I do have an extra junkyard hood I could use for the winter if it is a problem...
Any feedback is appreciated,
Tony

Mines a factory one. Haven't had any problems yet, and the snow on top of its been up to 10" high at times!
I've never heard of anyone having problems with cracking of the hood or anything like that. Remember there are cars where all the body panels are fibreglass.
Presumably, the thickness of the fibreglass and the build quality will have an influence though.
