Honeybourne mouldings do fiberglass front wings for about £60 each IIRC, or you can get steel ones frrom Toyota for about £120 each

They're no lighter really, just means that once they're fitted you haven't got to worry about them going again.

And probably a good call - as the metal on the OEM one's are incredibly thin, and can rust through even quicker than the originals unless adequately protected both sides.

but which will be safer in an accident?

500grams a wing IIRC

Depends what type of accident. Fibreglass is actually quite good at absorbing bumps and is actually much stronger than steel in certain circumstances

Fiberglass is Much more forgiving to Carpark dings and the like but lets face it the Mk1 whether you have steel or fiberglass wings the difference is going to be minimal interms of crash protection.
