I have never done anything with fiberglass before. There are plenty of instructional videos about it, but none are as descriptive, down to Earth and to the point as yours. I'm in the middle of a 2009 Tacoma Access Cab stereo upgrade with some tough placement choices, and solely because of your videos, I actually believe I know enough to try some custom panels. These videos will be loaded up on my computer the whole time for my first few tries. Awesome videos and thanks for posting...
Thank you for this video. Im trying to learn how to "fiberglass" custom auto parts. Your vid's (out of the 1,000 i've watched) is by far THE BEST! Very easy & simple to understand, not all of the background noise, B.S., confusing extra steps, etc. Very str8 4ward. NO MISSED STEPS EITHER! Cant wait to check-out your other video's!
holy Shit batman!. Iv seen your other fiberglass video on how to build a fiberglass box and I was amazed with how you teach the concept of building it. Today I fixed the holes on where I had mounted my tweeters, with fiberglass and realize it is not as hard as I thought it was. Now thanks to this video you have given me the confidence I needed to start my custom kick panel speaker pods.
Thank you. Learned a lot. I need to do this to my door. As I have no room in my kick panel area. Just bought a router tonight that fits on the circle jig. So glad I found this video. Made me glad I bought it.
Hurtugood86, your tutorial is just as much, congratulations, if half of the video tutorials on the net had half the quality of her everything would be much easier to make, very good, the best.
NIcely done, I will use the tutorial to do my kick panel for my 2003 Isuzu Ascender. Excellent job! I will do an extra step and add tweeters as well. Once again your tutorial will me help me do mines. Thank you...
My man that was one of the most informative videos I have seen yet excellent job to the point straight up I know how to build kick panels now great job thank you for your help I will be subscribing
This is the crude way of doing it, would never fly in a high-end shop, look up how to make a fibreglass plug and fibreglass casting with a tooling gel coat. You could do it his way but in person, it looks horrible. It's also much messier his way to much sanding and cutting, the end result doing it his way it will look like dented metal rather than a smooth part that flows with the car. Either way good luck mate.
Farmer Fpv - yes you are correct “HIS JOB “ will look horrible in person . He didn’t take the time to use a skim coat of lightweight bondo filler or cut and sand the edges nice and neat . Lots of people use this method while using more effort and finesse to have a flawless outcome . When I seen him starting to prime that bumpy surface I couldn’t believe what I was seeing .🤯😳
You took the shape of the kick panel with fiberglass and resin, and you structured the pod with fleece. Great work BTW; but a question remains: You didn’t explain to your viewers how you were able to fasten your custom build back onto the cabin. So how did you do it????
Great video! I envy the pneumatic tools you use. I wanted to ask you the SCFM/PSI compressor specs you need to operate them properly (sander, sable saw, etc). Thanks!
can u send me the list of items to buy to do this project so i can have a shopping list already printed out? i wanna do this to my truck and to my doors too. so far best video i've seen on doing the molds. also the small wood piece u glued in the center to hold the rings what angle is the block cut is it 45 degrees? great job!!
nice panel i want to try this but i have never done anything like this before so 1 question when mounting the panel do you put it over the original panel or replace it totally with the fiberglass one you made if its replace what is used to hold it in place...thanks
1) could u explain a little more why u used aluminum foil for the curved areas?..2) whered u get that fleece??...that looks amazing to work with for this
use cotton or some other fabric, fleece takes upto 4x the amount of resin for the same job, The foil was to make sure the glass didnt come away from the corner.
you can move the brake pedal over a little bit by drilling a couple new holes in the firewall and also trim the side of the pedal a little bit. or cut it off and reweld it. there is a video of a chevy c10 doing kick panels and ran into the same thing. it's a red and white stepside 2wd on airbags

Freaking excellent! I'm not paying anybody to do what I can try and do myself first. I truly appreciate this example!
Great video. Love that you made another kick panel and then made the speaker pod. Very informative.
that foil trick to get the matt to stay down was GREAT! thank you!!
This was the best video I've seen on fiberglass! You were direct, detailed, showed just enough video of each step, and made it look easy. Awesome vid.

simplest instructions I have seen from any other video. I am ready to try it myself. Nice work!!
You are kept very helpful to share about subwoofers, it is also demantable post for those who want to upgrade their old subwoofer.
The foil trick was brilliant!!! Thanks for sharing!
Very good instructional video,most of these are just pictures with crappy music, I will be having a go using this method soon.
quick, simple and informative... great job....
Dude great video! I love open, honest, and detailed how to's and this covers all three. Great stuff man! Keep up the good work!
this was made in 2012, This is such a clear video, Nice.
youve got some serious patience man! great job!
Foil for the curves..🤯 never knew! Awesome video!
NIcely done, I will use the tutorial to do my kick panel for my 2003 Isuzu Ascender. Excellent job! I will do an extra step and add tweeters as well. Once again your tutorial will me help me do mines. Thank you...

that flush bit technique was a good idea. I'll have to try that next time I fiberglass a speaker enclosure.
Modfyd GARAGE how do you mix fiberglass resin with hardener
Dude it literally comes with instructions when you buy it
Very nicely explained and a well done video clip. Nice job.
Really interesting, simple and efficient! Thanks!
Great video. Adding it to my favorites for when I build some panels in the future.
That is one of the best videos I've seen! Kudos, detailed and explained very well!
That was one of the most informative and interesting projects I've 👍👌
Awesome. I’ve always wondered how that was done. Thanks!
You did a really good job sir.
Good job but a lot of us are wondering how you mounted it after you were done. Could you please provide us an answer? Thanks in advance.

Awesome nice work
thank you, wow it was really nice, clever , makes me think of endless possibilities
Great vid man! Good job w/ those panels!
Great Video Thanks 👍
Very informative. Thanks for the vid
I would do coats of that primer build up and sand down twice if you want a less glossy surface like that
You took the shape of the kick panel with fiberglass and resin, and you structured the pod with fleece. Great work BTW; but a question remains: You didn’t explain to your viewers how you were able to fasten your custom build back onto the cabin. So how did you do it????
They never explain that. All these fiberglass videos never how to attach.
The cooking spray work with metal too?
Great look and solid build, but what about the tweeter? Holesaw?
Good job dude
piece looked great
This is some amazing shit ! Doing it this week ! Thx yo
This is awesome I have a 95 Yukon 4door I think I'm gonna use this method to install 8" subwoofers in the rear doors instead of using a speaker box.
it is standard fabric? or special material when you making shapes
So no fiberglass mat or cloth on top of the fleece?
Good Deal Good Job....hope all works out fine
Great video! I envy the pneumatic tools you use. I wanted to ask you the SCFM/PSI compressor specs you need to operate them properly (sander, sable saw, etc). Thanks!
can u send me the list of items to buy to do this project so i can have a shopping list already printed out? i wanna do this to my truck and to my doors too. so far best video i've seen on doing the molds. also the small wood piece u glued in the center to hold the rings what angle is the block cut is it 45 degrees? great job!!
you deserve my respect
Hi my friend!!!! What kind of cloth did you use, please? Thank you!!!
cooking spray for a release agent Genious!
nice vid man!
I love the way kick panels look but I hate the obstruction it often creates in tighter cars.
To the point. Covers the main topics quickly. A lot of instructional videos are verbose and dull. Nice job.
How do you bolt on the panel to the kicks?
Great videos, thanks!
HurtUGood86...what brand saw did you use to cut that perfect circle?
nice panel i want to try this but i have never done anything like this before so 1 question when mounting the panel do you put it over the original panel or replace it totally with the fiberglass one you made if its replace what is used to hold it in place...thanks
replace it. the old pannel is no longer needed
thanks
1) could u explain a little more why u used aluminum foil for the curved areas?..2) whered u get that fleece??...that looks amazing to work with for this
use cotton or some other fabric, fleece takes upto 4x the amount of resin for the same job, The foil was to make sure the glass didnt come away from the corner.
shouldn't you reinforce the fleece with mat?
3:22 what this type cloth ? Can you give me website for this ?
And what you use spray company 6:03
Thanks for the support. More videos to come soon.
Where do you get the fleece from? I found some at my local market but it wasn't stretchy at all. Are you using a specific type of fleece?
Walmart has it too
Muy buen trabajo, lástima que no es en castellano, felicitaciones, espectacular!!!!
hello friend, greath video, the spray you use to make the mold, which is? (0.33 min)
Def great video
Where did you use fiberglass? Resin is not fiberglass, and how did you make the attachment clips on the replica?
Thanks bro. Now i wish i had the right tools ha!
Nice video. Any tips for getting around the emergency break on GM and other vehicles?
I made some that got in the way of the e brake would like to see some made or how to make some.
you can move the brake pedal over a little bit by drilling a couple new holes in the firewall and also trim the side of the pedal a little bit. or cut it off and reweld it. there is a video of a chevy c10 doing kick panels and ran into the same thing. it's a red and white stepside 2wd on airbags
yeah how did you secure it ?
