custom hoods?

how hard is it to make a fiberglass hood? ive seen boxes center consoles dashes all custom made and some with very intraquet work in em. But i have yet to see someone make a whole custom hood. and im not talking about buying scoops and molding them to a steel hood anyone can do that. ive always wanted to customize a 1st gen ford probe gt no one makes a hood for them and the stock hoods are very heavy not to mention the manifolds generate a lot of heat so a vented or scooped hood would be very benificial corbon fiber would be excellent but id imagine very expencive and difficult but fiberglass would also be a good option.
so does anyone know how build a fiberglass hood from scratch?
