The product is formed by applying a mold release agent to a fiber reinforced plastic mold and then applying a gel coating over the release agent. A first resin impregnated fiber mat is place on the gel coating and a second resin impregnated fiber mat is placed over the first. The mats are pushed into contact with one another by a roller or brush or the like to adhere the two mats to one another. The label is placed in contact with one of the fiber mats while the mat is in an unhardened state. A transparent surface mat is positioned over the label so as to cover and protect the label and such that the label is easily viewed.
