well to aswer your question you could go to your local auto shop and get a can of bondo to use to mold it but you will sacrifice greatly in wieght and would honestly be better using a dremel and putting a cut in the roof parallel to the top of the wind shiel and slowly heat it with a heat gun, not a just a hair blower but an actual heat gun and slowly bend it to your desired shape

someone posted a tutorial on functional hoodscoops for Zips once. you can either look it up or try and understand the cr4p explanation imma give u, heh. well basically, the guy took the head of some sort of screw, the head was a half sphere, and he cut in half. Then, he heated the screw up like crazy, and pushed it against the car hood from the underside. it softened the plastic and pushed it upward into a rounded shape. then he dumped the whole thing in cool water to harden it up, took out the screw, and cleaned away the excess stuff. lemme try to find it.
