Built the molds for the trunk panels. Same as before, lay-up 'glass on top of these molds and then body work the outside later. No real, reasonable, way to make 'glass pieces any other way in this area. At least this method leaves the inside of the panels smooth and flat.
The inner support structure for the decklid around the latch won't clear this panel but it will be easy to create a clean relief starting with an already straight and flat panel.
2 layers of 1 1/2 ounce mat. Will let this cure for a couple weeks on the molds before cutting them out, cleaning them up and building the flanges.
Started a little headliner modification to add a sunglasses holder and map light. Lots more to come here... will build this plug, then a splash mold of this area, then cut out the plug and laminate it up properly. Always planned this but again, will be easy to create this shape on an already straight and flat part.
