Nope, I just cut the fram rails about 1-2" behind the shock mount and welded the loop straight in. The kick up in the frame was stock frame, which I really like, it gives it another detail instead of being flat. As for the fiberglass it was an easy process but pretty time consuming.
I bought a sheet of bi axis cloth (i think thats what is was called??) It had chopped glass on one side and woven on the other, super strong and pretty easy to lay. I cut cardboad to fit it the opening between the frame, blue taped the entire thing so that it was all one level. I also added a raised are in the back for added strength, like a bead roll in metal.
After the blue tape I covered it in foil a/c duct tape, then rubbed a mold release over it (about 3 coats) You can use a type of car wax, but you may want to check on what kind works. This just allows the form to pull off after drying.
I laid 4 coats of cloth and resin, giving adequate flash time between coats, also my resin was a no sand resin so I didnt have to let it dry then sand before each coat, which made it a little easier. After it all dried.....VOILA! I had a seat pan that fit perfect...almost like it was made for it!?
Of course I had to cut and sand it till it was the exact shape I wanted but that didnt take any time with a 4" cutoff wheel.
Then I just laid some foam and cloth and I got what you see in the top pictures. Hope that helps ya some? If you have any questions just ask. Good luck bud!
Heres a link that shows how I did it with pictures to give you a better idea of the process:
