Looks like house insulation ( RIGID ) .

Looks awesome. You are an inspiration sir.

Alright...update. And I'm a little geeked about it. I finished the passenger side pod and created the mold (or at least the start of the mold).

Just before I started this project, I moved my battery under the headlight area. Well Murphy's Law kicked in just after I got the motor running and the battery died. So, it was either cut out all of the work or finish it with a mold. Sooo...

I purchased some polyester primer and shot several thick coats. I love this stuff. It should make this so much easier.


Then some spot cleanup. I used modeling clay to make the corners and fill some edges. I also waxed it and sprayed on several coats of PVA.


Then came the nervous part. I really thought I screwed it up when I layed the fiberglass, but I built it up anyway and popped it off this morning.


Not perfect, but much better than I thought it would be. I'll have to clean it up and build some flanges, but it's better than my first attempt.


Boy, that seems ages ago...

Hmm....I don't like most of the flush or swapped headlight setups, but I find I like your custom ones. Very nice! I looking forward to seeing the finished product!

This. Is. BRILLIANT !
My idea for flush-mount headlights have always been third and early fourth gen. Camaro-based. This mod doesn't carry the angles of that particular concept, but takes me right to it. When I'm confident enough to tackle my flush-mounts, I will surely refer to this for inspiration.
