The iPad 4 glass assembly is made out of glass. Depending on where you purchased the screen from depends on the quality of the glass and how good it would hold up to drop and pressure. The glass is attached to the digitized using either liquid adhesive or OCA tape. This makes the middle part stay together and the top part can break away in prices if the screen is cracked.

I am asking because I have seen comments on amazon retailers of Ipad4 frontpanel replacements that say that the cheap replacements are made of plastic and not glass. I would like to buy the replacement kit from ifixit, but I want to be sure that it is exactly like the original made of real glass.
iFixit parts are top notch. They do not mess around with cheap crap. You will be very satisfied getting your parts from iFixit. Here is the link for the part:
