Well since you only seem to have resin on it, I would HIGHLY suggest that you add the support struts. There should have been at least 2 suuport struts that were included with the file. When you do big pieces like that, you NEVER want to harden it without the support struts because it increases the risk of major warping.
I would cut out the support struts then use it as a template then cut it out of cardboard since it's sturdy and it will help hold the shape better so that when you fiberglass, your cod piece will look better.

don't feel bad. my cod piece did the same thing. i made a second and used a combination of popsicle sticks and foam core poster board to give it support as i peped it the second time and ended up with no warping and it also ended up allot stronger when strengthened. i started using this technique on all my pep stuff. takes longer to pep but the end result is well worth it.

Its only the resin stage so that cod piece is still salvageable. Hell, my resined cod piece got rained on and it looked like a mushy mess and it was falling all into itself but luckily I was right there when it happened and I managed to save it. So I think just adding some support struts to it before you harden it will fix that.
