I guess you could do a coat of resin but I have doubts it would make it hard enough with just the resin to make it easier. If it were me, I would cut out the card board in as big of sections as I could, or at least tape all the pieces together to make a big panel and somehow have it keep that shape for the first cloth coat. Maybe break up the fairing into three sections, right side, front, left side. The hard part will probably be having the cardboard hold that curvy shape while the first coat dries.

Granted I've only ever used fiberglass on boats, but it's surprisingly easy to get the hang of.

Probably just going to put a layer of it on the inside of the leather so that I don't have to cinch the buckles down as tight to keep it from moving.

Controlling remote controlled vehicles from a wristlet would be awesome!

Yeah I think the flamethrower has to happen! I just need to think of a safe way to ignite it... the spark gap igniter I have is super dangerous, haha.

Yes, the diamondplate went in; pic related!

Damn good idea; I found a wetsuit at a thrift store and it was still expensive.

That thing is awesome! I'm not quite prepared to dump 200 bucks on something like that, but that would be a perfect addition to the bracer.

I would probably go with the "K8 Nuke Safeguard" as it has better reviews and is a bit less aesthetically intimidating, haha.

There's a lot of stuff on top of my car...! There's a spare tire, a PA speaker, off-road lights, and an air filter for the snorkel intake.
