Could you vacuum form it after making a mold from a roof that had the rear window removed and the "ribs" sanded out? Only issue would be the trim, and you could VF the main shape, then add the trim with Plastruct *NM*

Here's a cool idea. Disregard that cartoon character on the trunk or hood. Check out the "bubble top" (Garrett's words) on this lowrider '64 Impala. No, not a 62 bubble top. Take a look at the roof. This would be cool to do on a model as well. *PIC*

- Maybe free-hand the trim with gold foil... *NM*
- That is really sharp! I have used anime art on a model before - *PIC*
