Molding Aftermarket body parts question
When you mold a part like rocket bunny fender flares or a spoiler, what happens when the body flexes?
Will the molding crack over time?

Yes. Eventually it will develop a hairline crack as the different materials expand and contract at different rates over the years.
That being said their are some great fiberglass to metal adhesives made by LORD, 3M and Pilo-Grip that last much longer than the traditional duraglass.
