So after getting a ration of @#$# from my 100% DIY dad about not doing the bodywork on the clone myself, I'm going to give it a go.

Some friendly neighbors hit-and-ran both front fenders in our parking lot last winter, hard enough to produce holes and cracks in the fiberglass.

Anyway, rather than trusting the stuff OSH carries, does anyone have any recommendations on any particular product to build up/patch/repair fiberglass?

TAP plastics is a decent enough place, you might get lucky and have someone behind the counter know what they are talking about and can help you...check them out online as well, I know they have some online tutorials...

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I was going to say just this. In our area, go to TAP. They're a good resource.
