Can't comment on fibreglass, but had the same problem on my bike fixed by
welding with great results.

I would say however, that the guy who did the job was a VERY good welder.

One of my sidecover has cracked along the bottom where the locating pin
is.
 I've already tries JB Weld and (with a[pologies to JB) it lasted about 5
minutes before giving way. My question is, should I have the place welded
(and therefore have to repaint) or should I go with a fiberglass
reinforced
 body repair product. I'm a bit leery of having it welded since the metal
is
 so thin anyway...not sure I trust someone to not leave a big melted hole
there. Also, I really don't want to repaint. Damnable decisions!
Thanks for the input!
