Hopefully its good enough for us that have never done fiberglassing before can have an idea :willynilly:

 

Oh and I really like Jim's idea :), 3 gauge pod would be killer. I may just have to go down to the JY and get me a GP A-Pillar moulding so I can try this :eek:

cool :) i was using a $25 Dodge Daytona pillar pod in my Cutlass which actually fit the A-pillar really well. i'm going to buy another one for my TSTE and probably try to fiberglass it so it looks nicer.
