    At the last tech day in Vic i described to a few people of my crazyness with fiberglass before i bought the zed (still in the design process for the zed).

    A friend and I just thought we would test out what it was like to work with fiberglass and have a practise in a peice of crap hyundai excel before we go about even starting in either his or my car.

    here are some pics (don't laugh too hard):

    Re: LAUGHING...

    everyone seems to laugh at the color we ended up choosing.
    we thought canary yellow was the best to stand out and i think we where right.

    well i think $200 and a lot of swearing for that install was alright. not that expensive for something that stops people breathing for a few seconds when we open the boot of a bomb.

    I hate the colour, but the actual set up looks well made.

    How much fibreglassing have you done previous to this, because if thats a first attempt, wow.

    yep, this was our first time.
    it was a little difficult. the paint was a bitch cause we kept getting runs but we worked it out in the end.
