Thanks but the wheels I have are fine. Great news! Jarvis base got here , bad news is ups was not gentle and split one corner and chipped off a piece about a inch long. I can fix it though. Thanks to Sam. Mad props!

I will fill that chip in and fiberglass the corners from the inside just like the arms for overall strength. My favorite part is the from has the same curve as the stock piece and this eliminates the gap that was there originally for a little rubber bumper.

Damn UPS. I even put extra cardboard in there for support. I am glad it wasn't too bad.

Yeah the forming it to fit is all about the heat gun.

Ok so I got to epoxy.some cracks no biggie , t took me a hour to clear away the dynamat from the inside edge of.the base all the way around. Then I hit the inside with 80 grit sand paper to prep for fiberglass adhesion.

Each corner will get 2 layers of glass , the rest of the base will get a single layer.

Ok I tacked the matt in place with ca glue with several dots , I'm waiting about 30 minutes to make sure its all secure. I went ahead and did 2 layers of matt all the way around. I didn't initially realize it but 4 inches of walls all the way around gives me lots of.mounting surface for things like ezb and other electronics.
