flat lip spoiler

i was thinking if i used aluminum foil and suck on trunk then made a rough mold and poured resin in the mold onthe trunk(aluminum foil seperating resin from car.) would that work? to make a spoiler. i knowit would be kinda heavy being solid resin but im just thinking it would work. or i could use foam interior...
i make simboards on the side for kids at my school and i could use the same technique to make a small spoiler or even a bigger one...anyone see anyhting that would make this not work. i was thinking of attatching it with #m heavy duty tape....idk what r ur opinions.

nme3 is an unknown quantity at this point
would it work? probably, but will it look good? that depends on your personal ability. theres no harm in trying if you have all materials available, i say just give it a whirl and see how the outcome is.

sounds complicated, but it could work. i love the look of flat lip spoilers. that's why i bought a hybrid one. post pics if you do it!

you might be able to find the specs of the hybrid one thru honda...

use a foam interior, then learn how to work with fiberglass... some dude on automotiveforums.com (i think it was that) made a bodykit for his CRX using foam and fiberglass.. turned out pretty cool.. unless yer good with carbon fiber.. then that'd be hella cool.. but pricey..
