Anyone made their own GRP seats?

Based on the fact that I have zero experience of working with fiberglass..................I wondered if anyone had made their own GRP seats and how they went about it.

Any help appreciated.

i've read of someone making a foam seat and then using that as a mold for a fiberglass seat. Not sure of the benefit as i'd anticipate the foam would be lighter. If you google you may find it.

Expanding foam and a couple of bin liners does the job.

Not worth the time and you won’t make a saving on making your own!
Cheaper and easier to buy seats!
