I gently forced the fiberglass flat yesterday and weighed it down with bricks. By morning it was holding flat without the bricks but I kept them in place and let direct sunlight heat it again all day. Just finished working it witha heat gun. Trying to learn how to manipulate this matterial for future. The thing is ugly and amature, but it is only meant to be temporary. I will make another soon. This goes onto the car before I leave for work in the morning, maybe.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
