Well... it would be a huge project.  Have you thought about just 
building  a tube frame
race car(scirocco sized and shaped) and covering it with Roc panels?  It's 
been done.
The guy I bought my 2.0 shortblock had a 16V that he raced that was set up 
like that.
All the panels came right off for repair or replacement.
