Door Pods

I was planning on having these made.. but since I have copious amounts of free time, I guess I can try my hand at fiberglassing my own.

I just want to learn some basics off veterans, before I start. I'm currently waiting for my membership on fiberglassforums to be validated...


So... what do I need to know? How do you guys go about doing this?


I'm guessing:
Remove current speaker pod
make mounting points/baffle??
Spray glue fleece and stretch it to cover
Coat with resin
Cover with more fleece/resin??

also.. i've heard that people use bolts on the back, to anchor the new pod down... and i don't see how/where they do that?


If I do successfully make a pair (functional and asthetic) I may make molds out of it, to be able to produce some a little quicker. If people are interested. Just don't hold your breath.
