Fiberglass Molds
 
Well I have been messing around with autobody ---- for awhile and have been thinking. If anybody has any ideas as to what they would like made out of fiberglass, tell me. I could make them for you and sell them cheap. I am going to try to remake the lower portion of a body kit that was given to me. I can make pretty much anything out of fiberglass. Also I don't use that cheap ass pressed mat. I use the weave mat that comes out real smooth and quality. Give me some ideas for something small and I will pick the best one and try to make it and see if I can produce it many times. Then when I perfect that I will move on to bigger and better things. Thanks, John.

How about a gauge pod that mounts on the place right behind the steering wheel. That would probably be a good project to get your feet wet on. A memner here already made one by hand and it looked pretty slick.

John, all the local hmt'ers always have their eye on my stock hf lower lip. I don't think much of it, but they always seem to notice. :-\

So you want a guage pod on the steering wheel console and where else. i could make a duel and single there. As far as the lip I am not quite sure what you mean. I would have to have one first to make and exact mold of it. Or I could design on myself. Anyone have a stock bumper that they want to donate? I will work on the guage pods this week sometime and I will see about the $5. I haven't made them yet do I don't know

It's a release agent, oddly enough...
