lol i know this might sound funny but always considered trying this
sometime this spring im gonna attempt to build my own custom kick panels.. but instead of working with fiberglass i always wondered - would this be possible...
i remmeber back in highschool shop class my teacher taught us that if you ever need to fill something - instead of wood filler you could always just take sawdust from the same type of wood (or sand) and mix it with woodglue - and use that...
now using that priciniple - what if you took a mold of the area you wanted to build kick panels in... and used say sand + woodglue (dont forget woodglue is usually stronger than the wood itself) and used that mix to sculpt the kick panels... might take a little while but you could layer it - sand it down - and carpet/paint it or whatever you want.. and should have the strength if i am correct...? and of course - pretty cheap
