[QUOTE="g36 monkey, post: 1026977, member: 10997"] I've been talking with mold engineers at work to make sure I don't have any issues with this. Because of the shape, the scoop should be really easy. Waxing it like crazy, putting it on a piece of plywood, then laying out some material on it to make a basic mold. Make it good and thick. After I pop it off the scoop, then I glass some wood to it to make a box for added strength. Fill any voids and gelcoat it, then finish it. Then I could start casting parts out of it. Your louvers would be more difficult because they have the cuts in them, I could talk to the guys at work, I'm sure someone would have an idea. [/QUOTE]
