Sorry if i missed this--- What color will that fiberglass section be? or will it be wrapped?

Didn't miss it. Still haven't really decided. I have black vinyl ready but, if I can work them to were they are paint ready well guess what. LOL

Yes, you can make look worthy of paint!!

YOU CAN DO IT ;)

lookin pretty good so far. sanding shouldnt be too much of a pain, relatively flat surface. there's probably a tool...but i dont have it so for curves i gotta sand hand and after a while it's a BITCH

I'm on a slight deadline. I need them ready by next weekend. I might just roll to the show half done and finish them off later. It would look great if they were painted black. Now should I go flat or gloss?

Lookin good so far. im looking forward for some updates, this is inspiring me to do something with my car.

cool to hear man. Probably won't be an update for at least a day or two. Work and school kinda put a damper on things during the week. I might be working to midnight to meet this weekends deadline. LOL

Lookin real good man.

Nice clean start, now just gotta finish strong too.

I would suggest...If I may...if it's doable/open on the backside of the pod...lay some glass mat on the inside to strengthen em up without messin up ur nice clean outter surface...then you can skin-it with filler/resin milkshake and minimize your sanding.

The tools I have found most usefull when sanding curves and irregular shapes are called SANDBLASTERS.

Basically a stiff sponge with sandpaper texture all over the outside and they will conform to w/e you rub them against yet they're rectangular so you still have some sharp edges and flat sides to work with if need be. They have them in 2.5"x3"x1" lil rectangles and also "rubberized mat" thats thinner and flexible...very handy and you can fold it over on itself and get into all kinds of nooks and tight spots w/ them.

They sell em at autparts stores like Kragen/Autozone/pepboys in the Fglass section.

Keep up the progress, and I TOTALLY feel ya on the midnight sanding sessions. Kiss ur shoulders goodbye.
