Definately go with the sheet metal, JDMHondaParts.com has it for a decent price and it is OEM so it will fit perfectly. The fiberglass ones sometimes leave gaps at the seams. If you are going to get the conversion I would definately go this way...I know I will when I save enough $$ for the conversion.

Sheetmetal all the way. Fenders don't weigh that much in the beginning, and also how do you think Fiberglass kits exist? Well lets just say somebody takes the sheetmetal and makes a mold and makes the fiberglass version, but how it turns out is how well the mold was made and much time is taken to make the kit. So in the end it how well the kit will fit is by who made it.
