Ahh I did think about making sections, and although it's fairly symmetrical to the eye I'm sure it's not perfect. If I were to do it with pourable foam I would have at least made some kind of cardboard sections/dams to keep it under control, using the spray foam wasn't difficult to build up, aside from the bottom, pesky gravity.
I'll look into the bendable foam, I was thinking of building some 'walls' on the inside of the mold, just wasn't sure what to use to form it, the foam sounds like it might be the trick I need.
I don't think it needs a massive amount of re-enforcement, but I think it should be stiffer, around the split, maybe one or two walls/bendy foam strips on the big spans. I obviously don't want to add a whole pile of weight so I will add a few re-enforcements and see, add more as I feel necessary.
As for the side work on home builds, I don't think I would make a cowl for someone, but I wouldn't mind getting into some of the welding, I've seen some of the welding out there on home builds and I see room there
