The UV issue is solved by a black factory coating (gloss paint?) on the inside of the glass top. It was available in 1998+, maybe only as an option, but both my 1998 & 1999 have it.

When deciding what top to buy I asked myself this simple question: if you'd get an airplane that is going to be tied down outside year-round, would you want fiberglass or aluminum skin? Haven't regretted my decision to go aluminum, looks great after 14 years. My buddies' fiberglass tops are all crazed and dull.

They can be repainted and they will look nice again. If you have an accident with metal top the trailer is ruined for life. The fiber glass you just fix and it looks great again. I saw one metal trailer fixed after an accident. I don't think I would like mine to look like that.
