If you ever watched the show "Unique Whips" you'll see how the one guy made speaker boxes out of fiberglass... He would make a shape for the speaker to sit on, angled usually, then make a shape out of MDF for the base... then he would staple fleece (the stretchy material they make sweat shirts out of) and it would form curves... he would them paint on fiberglass resin, and get the general shape, then once it set up, he would layer on regualr fiberglass mat and cloth for strength... He's finish up with bondo to make it smooth and either paint it, or cover it with landau foam (thin vinyl top padding material) and cloth or leather....

Seems to me you could make shapes from wood, and 1/8" rod, and stretch the fleece over them and use the same technique for a fiberglass body....

Another quick fiberglass project...sub box - DIY Mobile Audio

I have an evil plan in mind for a Superglide style "body" for a minibike...
