ive dpone my whole car, all 4 door build and a custom box. Its coming together now, so ill get some pics up soon so u can have a look.

One thing i will say is its boring work and everything takes 3 times as long to do as you thought it would.
I can honestly say i wont be doing anothger fibreglass build myself without a LOT better setup at home to do it (tools etc...)

Its messy and time consuming but if your patient and creative you will get some results.

Just try on something else first like an old sub box, make it into a funky shape and see how you go.
