how do you 'mount' the final product?? Is it a removable seat?? Or do you actually glass it to the frame?

Here's a few pics...I filled it with body filler and smoothed the seat out. than I gave it a few coats of filler primer to fill all the sanding marks. now I just need to wet sand it with 400 grit to smooth it out some more. After that...I'll prime it again with some sealer primer and wetsand it again with 800 grit....Than it will be ready for paint and clear.

I painted my seat with a black base coat....all I have to do is make my fiberglass seat pan for my foam and vinyl.
I started on my tank tonight. I did some more pounding...than I filled it with poly filler as well as the Suzuki badge inserts. The pics you see are with the filler before sanding.
