Bob ,
I'm all for fiberglass panels if the quality is right , but quality and fit can 
vary enormously .
The obvious advantage is that they don't rust , but a small ding on a steel 
panel equals a pile of 
bits on a fiberglass one .
IMHO the best way to get a good fit is to make your own panels in fiberglass 
using the original bits 
off your own car , modified as necessary . You can do what you like with 
fiberglass .
Cheers
Mike
