You need a lot of experience with fiberglass. Unless you've worked with it before, I wouldn't recommend making the jump to a body kit for your first project.

Re: Fabricating Personal Body kit???? HOW???

i agree.... unless youve fabricated big pieces using fiberglass before, i wouldnt recommend doing this.... but if you must.... i would go to a junkyard and buy stock front and rear bumpers and use molding clay to make your desired design.... then make a mold out of that, and once that is done make your bumpers....good luck (FYI...this is only a very rough idea....there are a lot more minor things you need to do also) I would PM TheSilentChamber, he knows alot about working with fiberglass.... also do a search on here for it, i know there was a huge thread not too long ago about this.
