thanks guys. i really wanted to get it in at least to have good cupholders again haha.

trying to decide how to make the iphone area. i can cut it out and then recess it in or just cut the two sides and the top and sort of bend it down

i think the finish will look better if you recess it and make it so the plug is hidden that would look sick

fiberglass it as well!
use some wooden dowel rod on the corners however deep you want it and stretch/wrap the matting over the corners and then resin over that.
