Q&A: How do I make my own fiberglass body kit?

Question by BCJ_MTT n: How do I make my own fiberglass body kit?
Ok first off, I am basing my car off the crazy looking orange RX7 in the new fast and the furious. I have already made new door skins for my 95 civic, IT TURNED OUT AWSOME! It looks exactly like the doors on the movie. How do I go about making the quarters and the fenders? How do I make my mold and what do I use to make it? How do i make everything line up? I know its going to take a long time, and I don’t care, I am very determined, and this will be unique. I have all the tools i need, and if i don’t have them I can get them. If you don’t know what the car looks like http://media.cars.ign.com/media/835/835123/imgs_1.html go there. Please someone who has done this kind of work before or someone who knows what they are doing please get back to me.
