some spare parts places sell it like autobarn but its mainly small bits for repair work. if you need a fair bit of it i'd go to a hardware store.
awsome thanks![]()

GRP is good for moulding. have a look for a dedicated fibre glass supplier, they are usually around somewhere if you're in a capital city. they are used by boat builders and model makers.
hire a book from your library on how to do it. it's not too hard and fairly cheap. you can get pretty good results. building a large piece like a boot spoiler would take a fair bit of effort and patience tho.
Years ago I got some fibreglass sheets to mix with some really sticky stuff and it dries rock hard. It's hard to apply vertically because it sags, but it's the same stuff you repair holes in surf boards etc with. It's only good for smaller size holes though. Anything big would probably need a piece of steel welded to make it strong.![]()
make sure you wear a special face mask that blocks the mixture fumes... those things are toxic
