Yes, fibreglass, tape it up on both sides with masking tape and start with a very small drill bit and get bigger to the desired size....

Use a bit of masking tape - then start with a small bit to pilot it and then a nice sharp drill bit and you will be fine on FG and CF.
The masking tape is to stop the trill sliding around when you first pilot it
