| What are you fiberglassing? Are you trying to patch holes with fiberglass, or are you building a moulded item? |

| If you do try to tackle that. Take some pictures of your progress. I suck at fibre glassing. But I have wanted to modify my front lip. So it would be cool to see some newbie attempts to give me inspiration. |

| I used foam. It's okay I guess. Block of High Density foam are hard to find and you might find yourself gluing sheets together. Any blocks tend to not be very dense (aka you cant sand it) |

| Get high density foam. Low density is hard to work with. HD is hard to find though and expensive. To make a 1 foot by 1 foot block will cost you like 25 dollars. I think totem sells blocks but for the sandable stuff you need the stuff that only comes in sheets and then you glue it.. Here's a trick. Dont use styrofoam, use tin foil tape.. Layer it to make a sturdy base and fiberglass ontop of it! :thumbup: |
