Why not make one?



Foam core... cut/sanded to shape... then lay fibreglass over the top...

Pop out the foam... fill the surface, sand and paint..

ok ive never tryed that it sounds pritty easy,can i get the stuff over ebay or halfrods

Two mail order places have had excellent reviews.

and

you can buy all the stuff from halfords too, but its not the best quality, and its relatively expensive. but you 'can'

might be worth sending triton a u2u he had some scoops and the like

If it only sticks out a bit, why not try doing what I saw on a magazine featured hot rod once, that i though looked really good

Form a "blister" with a flange out of fine stainless steel mesh, and rivit the flange in to the back of the bonnet with the rivet heads showing through a trim ring.

ok im going to have a go at making one.
any ideas on what foam to use,i was thinking of that stuff you stick flowers in?

oasis?

that expanding foam in a can is ok with grp but the two part stuff is even more fun to play with when you get the gist of how to mix it right...proper laugh then
