what an OVERSIGHT! (dang this site needs more smilies; that was also a joke for anyone who knows anything about Ranma1/2 )...

dang.. FRP... so that's what it means eh?
yeesh.
but fibreglass distorts the weight distro and also would break/crack instead of bend and dent (metal)... ?

you can probably get the conversion kit through an importer.
e.g. www.jspec.com ?
