I certainly won't refute your first-hand experience. I will say that not all 'glass hoods are created equally. I'll also note that while there may not be a problem initially, repeated vibration from driving with the stock springs in place may lead to stress cracks. This is a fatigue problem, not an initial load problem. If you only drive the car infrequently, this may not be a problem.
