Icon7 Going on a Diet..Where to find fiberglass components

I have a 95 EG Coupe and Im looking for some fiberglass components. Specifically Im looking for a Hood. The one thing I would really like to find is a sunroof plug. Does anyone know of a vendor who makes quality fiberglass parts? I looked at franks but its for the HB only.

Thanks for the help.

Franks is closed now anyways.

There is a guy on here who I won't refer anyone to since he burned me but he does sunroof plugs.

As for the hood, CF is most likely your best bet.

So what did you end up doing for the sunroof, Im considering fabricating a plug out of lexan. Something similar to this. https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-crx-ef-civic-1988-1991-3/crx-civic-lexan-sunroof-replacement-kit-finaly-2263022/

All in the quest to lose weight. I managed to drop 115lbs so far by removing interior bits. Looking for every last ounce.

I have read some threads about people having issues with lighterfaster. Although they are a couple years old I have not read anything about them since. So, Im not sure if they have changed.

Still looking out for a reliable source of fiberglass parts but doesnt look like Im finding many out there. It seemed like years ago there was a handful of companies making hoods, doors, etc. Now its one or two..
