if the melting point of the plastic used is far enough above the actual temperatures reached, then it is actually a good idea. Weight savings, heat transfer, ability to injection mold, etc.

Plastics arent always bad, and there are more plastics used in aerospace and transportation than I am sure you'd be comfrtable knowing about, given most peoples misconception that all plastics melt at low temperatures.
