Hi everyone. I'm looking for a little advise. I’m starting a project on my Tesla Model S. I tailgate and I want to make my front trunk (frunk) a cooler. It’ll be a regular ice cooler. I’m thinking of using both fiberglass and polyurethane liquid foam for the cooler walls. I will not be using the little cubby in the back as cooler space. Imagine a flat wall on the entrance to the cubby.

I’ll start by laying a very large plastic sheet down into the frunk. I’ll then pour the foam into the frunk. Can I pour the flat bottom first, let it cure for 20 minutes then try to pour the walls? How do I pour the walls? Should I hold a flat piece of something near the wall and pout the foam between?

Once I have all the foam cured and out of the frunk. I’ll sand and trim it. I figured I would then put a few layers of fiberglass on both sides. I want it to seal when I close the hood, but I'll worry about that later.
