Altima, base on my personal experience here is how i do it (maybe not the best way but works good for me
)
cut the botom part out of wood or use the existing kick panel
cut the top part out of wood
cut,rotor, sand the round for my speaker to fit in
use a metal braket to angle the top on the botom part
take an old strechable tshirt stretch it and wrap it around to "shape" the pods and tack it in the back
prepare mix of resin and catalist
using a paint brush apply the mix on the strecth tshirt
let dry till its hard.
now you got your pods "shape" you need to make them strong so no1 will brake them when they accidently kick them while entering your ride (every1 will kick them).
at this point you can use the fiber cloth, "liquid" fiber, bondo.... its up to you and then sand,sand,sand and sand then finish it up with carpet,leather, paint again up to you.
i think you posted a link a while ago about a custom door panel, in that link there was some nice pictures that showed u how to "shape" your pods :bigup:
as for the drying time, it all depends on your mix (the more catalist you put in the faster it will dry)
and yes a good pair of latex gloves is a must
