Hey i know blowsion sells those fiberglassed ones but their a pretty penny is there any alternate any body knows of? the one on my ski is cracked and i really dont care about the gas cap in front ill fill er up from the top anyways

You have a squarenose now? I would recommend Art Maybee to make a flush piece for you, but it took me over A YEAR to get mine from him! I know others have glassed the door in, and Rickster had one that was turfed over. Either option would be cheap and work great!

24/7 has a nice piece i saw at the shop the other day.

2 part foam
shape to desired shape
2 layers 12 or 17oz biax

Call it a day for $50-$75 and a few hours labour.

My square is almost ready for glass...

I think you will get used to the way it looks w/o the piece while saving up to buy one. :biggrin:

Here is JayB704's nose, looks like it turned out nice. Maybe he would even do one for you for a couple $$.

just glass from the back around the door, dont do the whole thing because the piece wont be flexible and may not fit back where it was, I learned the hard way and ground down all the glass on the inside sides so I could manuever it into place and screw it down. Fill in the top side with a filler, sand and paint. Dont use marine tex, just dont.

Finishing work does suck. To pour the foam is nothing, and to shape it took maybe 1-2 hours using a bread knife and 100 grit sandpaper.

Havn't glassed yet. Soon...
