    OBS Fiberglass panels

    I think its been asked before. And I've thought about it, and searched and didn't find anyone with the answer. Found a front end for just the obs 88-98.

    Fiberglass Reproduction Body Panels

    But for now I guess gmt800- gmt900 guys gotta do some home fab if you are really interested.

    Figured this would be some nice info for obs.

    Now that is the question I can not come across is weight. Its all measured in oz per yard with the material, and I guess 4 or so layers with fiberglass, plus weight of epoxy.

    I'm planning on learning some fiberglass work, and move up to carbon fiber, and making some panels myself. Probably pretty soon with fiberglass being how its pretty cheap.

    Edit: I emailed those guys to see if they can give me an estimate of its weight. At least that would be similar for nbs trucks
