I am tempted to go through the whole process of making a mould and doing something completely out of fibreglass. Andrew suggested if I am covering my plywood in fibreglass, why use plywood. He has a point. His sports sedan should get up and boogey at higher speeds than mine, and his is straight 'glass.

That way I could look at including venturis that duct air away from the front and up to the brakes, increase downforce etc.

What I have really come to understand is that the 'engine cover' part does not need to be anywhere as strong as I have made it.
