This is what I did
1- cut out high spots in pad and clean with acetone or some type of wax and grease remover.
2- lay out the fiberglass or in my case I used a fleece material(it's cheaper, easier to get). I used a 1/4" crown staple gun with 3/8 staple to secure the material on the underside, staple into the foam. Some of the sharp corners have to be cut and stapled into a seam.
3- mix up fibreglass resin and coat entire surface until saturated.
4- when dry, go around and trine edges with a dremel cutoff wheel. Then a rough sand whith 80 grit from the orbital sander.
5- set the vent trim bezels back in(only the bezel, not the ball and housing).
6- skim coat with bondo, entire surface. Run the bondo up to the bezels for a clean finish.
7- sand bondo and re apply as needed. Finish sand to 180 grit. Some sanding needs to be done by hand to make the round areas smooth.
8- I sprayed a coat of primer, then textured paint, like the metal finish rattle can to give it texture(not needed if you want it smooth)let dry over night
9- paint with color( I used brown and then top coated with a flat clear.
I will post up some pics tomorrow of it installed.To dark for pics now. It looks pretty much stock, thats what I was going for. I found a brown rattle can at home depot that matches the factory brown really close.
cant wait to do mine...
