ojc, i could be wrong mate so dont hold me to this, but fibreglass is very good at absorbing energy, so i thing in a crash, you should be ok, however the car would be totally fucked.
also with the shells being 1 piece, if you had a light bump, say the front quarter, would the whole shell have to be replaced?
