Look at good CF hoods, they can take a full front on collusion.
Yes but when they do break they shatter and the edges are much more jagged. The edge is like a knife...it will cut through your fingers.

A fiberglass part will not shatter, but has less strength to weight than carbon. The break is much smoother and easier to fix.
