Fiberglass will crack over time due to the stresse of the assembly. ABS is also harder to break in an accident where fiberglass will shatter.
ABS is in the plastic group , its surface is smooth and after painting it will be beautiful and do not have wavy effect as compare to painting a fiberglass surface |

Fiberglass will only crack if there's an impact, or if it doesn't fit correctly and it's forced to be in a certain position. Fiberglass does not "shatter". Fiberglass can be fixed/mended to look like new in case of an impact, whereas with any plastic (be it ABS or urethane) this is very difficult, if not impossible. Also, the "wavy effect" that critical mentions can happen to any surface that is not completely smooth. That applies to ABS as well is it's not fabricated correctly.
