Thread: I couldn't build it for $3 K either!

I also got around to slicking up the transmission hump I built earlier. I fabbed it by laying glass over a temporary wood frame covered with thin aluminum roof flashing( sorry no build pics). Works pretty good for simple shapes and the aluminum peels off easy. Trouble is the surface next to the metal is left slick, while the other side is pretty rough. I wanted to finish it now while I had plenty of room to work. I used fiberglass filler for the rough build up and polyester glazing putty for the finer stuff. Since the floor will get coated with bed liner later, I wasn't worried about getting it "paint" perfect.
