How much do glass fiber parts weigh compared to OEM parts?
Glass fiber parts are typically lighter than most OEM parts, especially when compared to steel or metal components. However, they are usually heavier than carbon fiber parts. The exact weight difference depends on the specific OEM part and the design of the fiberglass replacement, but in general, fiberglass parts can reduce the overall weight of the vehicle while still maintaining durability. This weight reduction can contribute to improved performance, fuel efficiency, and handling, making them a cost-effective option for weight savings compared to OEM steel parts.
