indytrucks Posted March 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 and where did you look to get a new lower insert? I made the lower insert out of 1/8" mdf and some foam and some suede. Not had really. Looks better the stock. I just wish I had more suede to do the back to match the fronts. As far as mounting the fiberglass pods al I'm going to do is screw through the back of the door panel I think. I made the pods out of birch so they don't weigh that much. I love that stuff! If anyone has any better ideas on how to mount them I'm all ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codi Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 that is pretty dam sweet. and indeed does look better. and are you just gonna glass the pods then screw them on or glass them to the lower insert? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indytrucks Posted March 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 I think I'm just going to attatch the fiberglassed pods to the door. I'm going to paint them grey or silver with some flake. Actually I'm going to take them to a freind who paints professionally and have them painted. Them clear coat them and wet sand em. Hell might even do some wax and a buff ! We'll see how adventurous I get. On a side note I've never done fiberglass before but I am going to start that process tomorrow so ANY advice would be appreciated. I do have a question: I've seen most people use a lite weight fleece type fabric for the base then resin. Is there a reason for this? The reason I ask is I have a thicker woven fiberglass fabric to use. Will this work ok? I mean I know it will probably be hared to saturate with resin but it should work pretty good right?
