lookin very decent, props to it, how much did it cost for all the figerglass and other materials to do?

 

i dunno lol.. all materials can be bought at lowes, home depot, or auto parts store. Bondo brand fiberglass cloth or Elmers *what they sell at home depot/lowes*.. Resin in either brand *tho Bondo brand isnt really desired too much, it will work though* For body filler though, you want some quality stuff, I bought a gallon of Rage Gold, if i recall its like over $50-70 for a gallon. but its worth it. its enough for the spoiler, and still plenty left over for body work etc.

I first started the spoiler by using cardboard for the extension and then wrapping it with some fabric cloth , then soaking it with fiberglass resin, then laid some fiberglass over it etc..

 

pic sucks as i dont have a rear bumper on it. I spray canned the spoiler just to get a idea of how it will turn out




dunno, kinda perfer no spoiler /shaved look

 

I'm pretty sure you could use Hypertek's fiberglass technique to patch those. Make sure you sand it even and possibly fill it out.

 

Holy cow dude what were you blocking that with? a bag of walnuts?

 

it takes forever to sand .. still sanding too dude lol

 

with the new to me gpsports replica rear bumper that was tough to fit
teaser pic

gotta shave the emblem and old spoiler holes

 

The body kit makes me puke

Just don't make it stick out too far and it'd look good.

 

im sorry man, you must get sick alot

 

old mock up picture


yesterday mornings progress



as of right now


Hopefully last of the filler i need to do.. just gotta sand a few spots.. throw some primer and paint. Hopefully it wont be too wavy.. thats whats hard about buildin your own fiberglass stuff... If i ever see the likes of gloss paint, then ill probably go over it once more to make it perfect.

Cant wait! should have it finished in a day or so..

Im hoping i get this new job, had an interview today.. I already got my next project in mind...




I dont live too far from el mirage *dry lake*.. i wouldnt mind at one point in time to run this car, provided by then ill have some safety gear to protect me lol

 

ugh! one of the spoiler studs broke off... so i only got 3 now.. and im not sure if this spoiler was missing 2 in the first place... 2 inner studs on each side, and one outer stud on the right.. ugh

i finished the spoiler btw.. just kinda bummed i broke that stud. I could rock it with 3 bolts, but that kinda sucks.. ill have to think of something.

 

I am interested in the wheels, how did you get the Volks to separate to paint them?

 

they come like that!

 

what would those skid plates be used for?

 

Ehhhmmm... Paris-Dakar?

He's trying to to smooth out airflow under the car. So used for: Aero Improvement.

Riz.

 

finished for now.. its not perfect but its cool. few blemishes it wouldnt be ideal to copy.. i could always do better if i did another one.. I fixed the broken stud by drilling it through, and screwing a screw in its place, jb weld, and then cutting the head off, leaving a nice stud in its place





i hope hiromi oshima likes it lol


next is to hopefully get a job soon.. then paint.. been bummin it for a few months =(
been applying alot of places,.. economy is slowww

 

Chick is fine!

 

something diff. for sure, i like the alum undertray

 

As do I...

And as you know, Chris, I need an undertray.

 

please for the love of god put a unertray on there...

 

Good stuff... so is it done for now?

 

wow i thought i invented this... someone in japan has one lol, i wonder who makes em. I wasn't aware of that.


looks just like mine minus the third brake light.

Mine is deteriorating from the weather/environment so im thinking about correcting the lil things and seeing if someone will reproduce it , i have a few places in mind. I just dont wanna give it up lol, kinda cool making something and being the only one.. id reproduce em myself if i could.

 

yea i saw ione like a month ago on the jap yahoo auctions and thought the same thing

i meant to save the pictures but i dint

 

i like this car but not really feeling that whole camaro style cut out trend

 

i saw this spoiler forsale in Upgarage i have no idea what it is and never seen it monted but i like it!
