Attempting to fiberglass a hood

I was fiberglassing the fairings that are cracked on my bike when it was laid down and waiting on it to dry I got bored and decided to see if I could make a fiberglass cowl induction hood. I've started working on it and hope to have this done in the next couple of weeks to a month due to lack of time and being out of town trying to get hired by the state police. This project will take a back seat to the bike for now because I'd like to get the bike done before winter. Has anyone else tried custom fiberglassing body parts? Anything I should look out for? I'll try to post up some pictures when I get a little more into the process.

I dont get what you mean when you say you wanted to know how fiberglass would work as a cowl.

I am wanting to custom make a fiberglass 4" cowl hood. I want to custom make an entire hood with fiberglass.

fitment will be an issue since you will have to replicate the exact curve of your front end

it can be done, just not that easily. there have been a number of cars with entire fibreglass shell and bodywork.

Well, I'm trying it......

Put some horns on it... and a pentagram...

The guys on MP3Car.Com (I think that's the name of it) are into fabbing interior stuff with fiberglass, and there's TONS of posts / threads on it. Might be some help there. I've heard it's not impossible, you just have to get used to working with it. I would imagine that if you made a frame that fit good and then covered that with glass then you'd be in good shape... but what in the hell do I know... I'm an acountant.

I've been so busy with work and fixing the bike here lately I haven't progressed much, and honestly had forgot about it. I have tomorrow off work so I will get started on it again. Thanks for the nudge I needed.
