First use a sound deadening material of your choice to line your wells. I went cheap with a homedepot HVAC material. Not the best but works pretty well.

I used card board to build the basic framework for the molds. It also helps to control the shape of the back of the boxes so that they don't get stuck in the tight corners. Use flat pieces of cardboard from the lid seal to the back of the well wall to create an angled back on the box. Otherwise, the mold will be stuck in the car once it hardens.

Use masking tape to shape the mold. Be sure to seal it well or resin will leak through.

Use a sray adhesive to attach aluminum foil over the taped surface. Foil will serve as a release agent when removing the molds.

2-3 layers of fiberglass are usually good enough for the initial mold. You don't want it too thick or stiff before being able to remove it from the car. Once dry, mark the edges with a sharpie for trimming purposes then remove the molds.

Trim the edges of your mold based off of your previous markings (check your markings twice cut once). Now it's time to place the mold back in the car and to fit the mounting ring. Close the trunk lid and take note of your clearance. Use whatever you have to brace the ring in position.

Use hot glue and wooden dowels to stabilize the ring. Be sure to check the position of the rings and trunk clearance (lid down) again after the rings are mounted on dowels.

Cover the front of the mold and ring with fleece or Tshirt fabric. Note: Tshirt fabric provides a smoother texture but absorbs less resin. Stretch the fabric of your choice over the surface and be sure to remove all wrinkles. Hot glue the fabric in place starting at the ring and stretch outward. Apply resin to fabric surface but leave the ring opening dry so that it can be cut free once hardened.

After attaching and coating the fabric you will want to add 3 or more layers of fiberglass to the face of the box for added strength. You can add these layers to the inside or outside of the box. I chose the inside because I didn't want to smooth out the surface afterwards. You can seal the inside of the box with a final cream coat of activated Bondo & fiberglass resin, mixed 50/50.
