Fiberglass and thin MDF for the bulk of it, Bondo-Glass or equivalant for the finishing.....

And a helluva lot of sanding [img]smile.gif[/img]

make sure you use a filler that is meant for plastics or it will just crack off eventually

This stuff:

It comes in different "flexibilities" so have a look at their site. Your favorite body shop store should have it or something similar.
