DSSR

If you have access to the DSSR in your car, you could take a piece of that foam over wire that they use to hold up tomatoe plants in gardens. Bend it exactly to the shape you need for your car and mark the pin/bolt locations. You could then take it to a machine shop who could bend a piece of aluminum rod to that shape and drill two wholes in it for the bolts/pins. Check out the local community college if they have a machinist/welding/metal program.

If you want to DIY, take your foam model, wrap it in fibreglass tape, apply JBweld epoxy, and repeat until you get to about 1/2". Let dry, drill for the bolts/pins and check out your handi-work. Glass and JB-Weld will be less than $30 and you will have a new skill.

Good luck.
