    Funny enough you can get fiberglass mat, resin and jelly at Wal-Mart. From there it's just a lot of practice and screwing up. I'm wantng to lay down a template for a wing for my Corolla as well but I need to get some more materials.

    KonigRolla - so basically it's just like a 'decal' eyelid? Sorry, I'm just making sure I'm understanding, it's not a bolt on cover... right?
