I wonder how much of an improvement you'll see in gas mileage in switching to the fibreglass over the stock steel body panels. Is it much of an improvement, or are those fibreglass panels reasonably thick/heavy?

Complete 4Runner Shell Coming!
NIIIICE! You are going to be making complete 4Runner shells! You can buy complete Camaro bodys and 55 Chevy bodys, to build your dream car. Soon we will be able to buy a fiberglass 4Runner body that we can build up and it will never rust...maybe shatter, but never rust. NIIIICE! When will these be available and how much will they run?

Well Corey I found out exactly where your garage is and how long it would take me to get there:Total Est. Time: 41 hours, 42 minutes
Total Est. Distance: 2761.28 miles
It would be worth it though to meet you and see the products you offer up close.

How well do the 1/4s fit?Im tryin to make up my mind on replacing mine or repairing them.Its a small hole by the gas tank. I was thinking 2 fiberglass ones would be great if they line up and are not going to need tones of mud to make look right.
Sweet project.reminds me of mine except your way farther along.
