Default A little fiber

when i received my hood i did not like the way the vent looked. it looked like it was just a hollow square hole. i wanted a more finished look. here are some pics.

I first started by using some wood filler to close the gap. I used plywood. I then filled in the gaps with the epoxy resin and thickened it up like peanut butter with some silica. I then layed fiber cloth and trimmed it to fit. I then used resin to glue the cloth to the hood. i ran out of time today and had to go to work.
