I had a short in my car and was going through the whole wiring harness. I went overboard and pretty much ripped out everything in the interior.

I'd like to cover all the interior holes with fiberglass, so it doesn't look as... hole-y :pface

Wondering if I'd run into any real problems.

Not to discourage you but why would you want to? Fiberglass will stick for a while but then it will slowly break off. Especially if you have a lowered car, do hard turns, go over hugh curbs to get into parking lots; your car's chassis will flex and this will definitly break off the fiberglass then you'd be having the trouble of taking all the old pieces out. Unless you rivet the fiberglass as well but I didn't see any good points of doing that unless you are trying to drown any road noise from your car.

yah there almost is no point to doing it I just want to play with fiber glass... I was looking at the holes in the car and most of them are trim holes... so... I dunno just thought it would be interesting to do over the weekend.
