I am building an epoxy fibreglass body for my Geo Metro with pink styrofoam for the core material.

Instead of a custom made bubble, I am using a standard small airplane bubble.

There is a lot of info out there on making composite bodies.

Here is a good project.

Volkswagen L1 is another great design.
