That's a poly foam base from which a mold will be made. Finished product will be made from fiberglass and it won't have the gloss finish. Someone I know is working on this project. I'll keep you guys posted.

I think we all double that. i think there was a petition for one company to mass produce them. They found someone to let them use theirs as a model to go ogff of. I don't knwo if it went into mas spro yet though.

I've got them down to about 6 hours of work if you don'tinclude the time it takes the epoxy and paints to dry. But your right its not that hard just time consuming.
