Fibreglass transmition tunnel cover...
Ok, well i wanted to have a go at some fibreglass in my build and i think this would be a good thing to have a go at, even if it proves to be useless and a waste of time. I saw similar in an mnr vortex and thought it would be a good idea, basically instead of fitting aluminuim panels to the transmission tunnel, i want to make a one piece transmission tunnel cover the will hopefully look abit sleeker.. Now im wondering how to make this for as low a cost as possible so anyone got any suggestions on where to get cheap fibreglass and resin/gelcoat , i have a fairly good idea on how to do everything, but im not keen on paying more than a few bob for the resin, so any thoughts on where to get some cheap.
Thanks

ok, thanks guys, im a relative noob to fibreglassing so may have a few questions on the way, but ill give a few people a call tomorrow, and see if there are any local grp people who may have cheap roll ends and resin. Its a shame as i already bought alu sheet for all the panels, but really want to make it out of fibreglass or at least give it ago, well at least if my attempt goes balls up, ive got some alu sheet spare
