    fibreglass or plastic?

    either way, cut it down the middle

    if it s not symmetrical then trim 2" off each 1/2

    if it is, then just lop 4" off one side.

    clamp the halves together and run a soldering iron down the cut, joining them temporarily.

    now slash the inside with a knife, to give the glassfibre something to grip to.

    layer shitloads of fibreglass on

    filler the outside.

    paint it
