Everytime they snap where they meet the hinge pins I want to reinforce them some how so I can save on parts.

There is a diy store not far from me and I reckon glass fibre could do the trick. I've seen people putting some one their wheel wells but not in large amounts as I intend. I don't think the glass fibre would weigh much and I've used it a lot making boats so i don't mind the weird feeling.

any help would be appreciated
sounds a bit daft but the weak point is built in so you dont break the bulkhead or bend it ask phil what to do he'll have a suggestion
