Nice work on the fender. Little trick before you lay the fiberglass, trace the outline edges with a sharpie pen on the tape. It'll transfer to the fiberglass and give you an easy to follow line for trimming the fender out.

I’m going to be a critic and say this isn’t how it’s supposed to be done. Three thin layers is not going to cut it. No gussets or stiffeners. No mounting flanges. You should have made a stiff mold instead and then used mold release, gelcoat, and chopped strand mat and you’d have almost perfect reproductions of the foam overfenders and they’d be strong. I can’t imagine trying to fix what you made enough for a finished product. You were so close!

You're a skilled man. Enjoyed watching this. There's car modification and then car modification. This is next level my dude. Smashing it 👌

this is by far the cleanest diy fender. amazing talent man! can't wait for the end result yay

well you had me waiting for so long. dude i'm gonna say this, i've watched alot of fender diy videos, yours are the best. You an artist.

Really nice to see someone who is decent enough to use manner and thank people for support. Great work buddy

Thanks for breaking it down in a way where I feel like I can give it a go😂 Awesome stuff

So glad to see some progress on this car

Awesome work! Subscribed as I’m looking to do something like this somewhat soon. Thanks for the quality video.

Can't get enough of this cat! I subscribed

This bloody amazing and I will be using this same method and posting videos on my channel. Will be doing this on a vw polo breadvan. Thanks so much for the info and what products to use.

Awesome build

I love the progress man!!! Keep up the great work!!! 👍

I love how instead of constantly repeating subscribe there was the subtle message See you soon! keep on the good work, I want to see the build complete!

Epic...great content man. Best diy fender build I've seen on the tube. I'm watching man don't stop the awesome work. Shout out from S.A🇿🇦

I’m inspired, and hoping to do some panels for my LDV van. I’m going to start with the sills and wheel arches.

Awesome work, love your style mate - hell of a lot of good ideas well executed.

I cant wait to see how this turns out man. Keep up the hard work. 👌👌👌👌👌

Great job, you are making huge progress💪🏼

Very nice work

Wow that was awesome

Great video! I really appreciate this. It is very helpful.

I've got ah ae92 liftback can't wait to try your method on making a wide body kit for it I'm learning a lot with your videos

Nice work!

Channel going up love seeing it!

Great progress mate 👌

Nice, cant wait for the final product

Turned out pretty good. Another great video 👍👍

Nice. Technic wise I'd say use a bigger bush to get the resin on. Dont be shine with the resin I'd usually soak the first layer because the next layer will soak up the excess resin from the first layer and makes it easier the wet out the next layer. Also wet each layer before moving on. And give every layer a good roller get out as much air as you can and really work the resin through the glass. And the main thing is work fast... Keep it up its looking good.

Very nice, thank you

Well done , i like the way you approached this , great idea i wanted to try out but never got to it. Glad to see it works and very great aswell. Can't wait to see finished product

im loving this new layout... When you gonna make the next steps?

Appreciate.... You make me confident that I can also do that you are amazing.

I got sand dust at my eye just by watching this video. Currently working for my bike now. Keep the good work

Can’t wait for the next vid!

Looks good!

Awesom videos brother!..very informative!..question, you don’t have to sand the fiberglass between each layer

LOOKS NICE BROTHA

Wery Nice work man. Is fiberglass safe to work with it that way when applying?

Good work dude 👍

Nice update,Chris!

Beautiful😍🤤

Great job, keep up!

hy great job man...may I know how u ensure the other side have the exactly same shape ?

nice project! i want see more progress on this car

Sick AF!

Awesome job dude! Subscribed! Looking forward to an update

Yes

whats the song near the end of the video when you're cutting the fiberglass? Did a great job thanks for all the info!

To nail the other side make an other one using the inside of new one as a mold then cut it into equal 2 inch strips to make a identical templates for the other side. Cut templates out of foam. Use cloth not the mat. only use mat for making molds. I build for the big guys. Add cf to lips, edges and attachment points, use honey comb to prevent flexing, add hidden brackets to keep rigid, if it vibrates, or flexes it will create micro cracks leading to failure.

Omg!!! Bro ur legend ❤️

Great work! I wait to more. 🇵🇱

you are the best bro .

Yusss, been hanging out for a vid for ages. Loving the progress. The visions coming along nicely. Also, that last song was awesome! I need to know the song name lol

Happy new year...

Had a few goes at fibre glass and always fuck it up, did think about foam but seen other videos where it been tried and melted. Ally tape is a blinder. Defo got me in the mood to give it another go.

Thanks for the video! I'm doing similar things now with my s12, and thinking on the mold material - the foam or a this steel of a plastic... I think I will try steel because with such straight lines it can be easier then to manage to straighten the foam of the fender. I will use some of your hints for sure! :)

How thick should the final piece be for structural integrity?

Looks like when you did the multiple layers of fibreglass at once the middle layers didn’t bond properly is that what we’re seeing when you pulled it off and it’s moving like a floating layer?

What is the foam your using to build the form out of

Olá amigo que tipo de fita é essa que você usou ? Acho que aqui no Brasil não tem igual poderia me enviar o link pra que eu possa comprar ?

What type of resin are you using?

Wow I love it 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Yessssss finally!!

When KZfaq switched over to notifications i didn't understand quite how it worked For the longest I thought you just hadn't been uploading... Finally caught u in my recent uploads... Looks like I got a year of catching up to do was kinda sad when I thought you'd stopped uploading... Glad u finished the svx though

What size wheels/ tires are you running?

Good work bro 👌👌👌

Oven aluminum foil and 3m spray glue works great to to cover foam before glassing......

Not going to drag this video on.. just going to tell you how happy I am and how stoked about that I am 6 times in 30 seconds.

A fellow brit builder! Glad this popped up on my feed 👌 enjoyed the video man ⚡️

How do you match both sides of the car

Nice, but how to duplicate next side ?

It’s rare that I find a new video that I get excited and tell all my friends about, but yours made me feel like a little girl. Maybe my A3 will get custom flares in the future? Anyways great video can’t wait to see more.

What are the tire sizes and offsets?

Subscribed! I want to see how this thing will look when its done

Another great video thanks , I've been having trouble with resin to harder ratios , what are u doing are u weighing or what method do u use .......can't wait for the next install 😊

Legend

what tape are you using? great content! congrats!

Love the brats. Sadly you don't see them here in Michigan much anymore. Too much road salt in this area of the states.

what kind of tape is that ?

Instead of silver tape to fill with drywall compound then cover with decking sealer

What kind of tape is that?

Amazing work! How strong do you think the 4 layers of fiberglass are because I am going to be using my car for road racing and drifting. Thanks

Use a paint roller 3 or 4 in for resin app,goes much faster,an tray!

thats do sick bro.. always wanted to try doing a body kit like this... how are your hands not dead from touching that fiberglass without gloves?

Nice work .... one thing when i do glass i use a smaller brush so it takes longer🙄👍

So the aluminum tape you put down then the fiberglass and resin and it pulled off that easy when it was cured?

So so sick man! Fair play for giving this a go, I know ure a bodywork man anyway but building your own body kit is somthing else all together! This is going to look sick when it's done! Are you going to take it to shows when complete? I'd love to see these cars in the flesh!

Crazy👌🏽

nice music! whats the name for that silver tape who is the manufacturer?

I am hanging out to see how you get the other side to come out the same. I could see how you would do it with the other method you used

very nice love it ;)

Decent. Go the Brumby

1. ALWAYS use a respirator with activated charcoal filters when mixing and/or applying polyester resin. It's toxic stuff - carcinogenic. Some old time glassers have passed on or gone REALLY STRANGE from not using a respirator when they should. 2. NEVER allow fiberglass dust from cutting or sanding to get on bare skin. It will itch so bad you'll want to skin yourself. DAMHIK! 3. Similarly, a t-shirt isn't really enough protection from dust but you can get by for brief periods. 4. Chopped strand mat (CSM) is a lot easier to wet out (laminate) if you brush on a really thick coat of resin first. That way the first layer of CSM will wet from inside and outside. Mix the first brush coat of resin with something to thicken it up, where I live the thickeners usually used are Cabosil, Qcell, or fume silica (all of which require respirator use). 5. The mold is pretty flexible with only 3 layers of CSM, so before you peel it off the car, glass in some stiffeners from strips of wood, or bend some thinwall rigid electrical conduit and glass that in. The resulting stiffness of the mold will make life easier later and your mold won't be flopping around.

I used to have a Subaru SVX I see in the background lol

What I wanna do is put box flares like these on a 1990 Volvo 240 wagon. Would look really cool!

👍👍👍👍👍

Give it a back to the future paint job

What all did you use for the fiberglasss and hardening agent?? Wanting to do this as well, cheers mate

Nice work! I've got 2 questions: first of all, why fiberglass, and why not carbon-fibre ? the second is an easy one, how can you make it symmetrical ? Im wondering on that all the time, when i want to make a widebody.. ordering a kit is like 3k$, but DIY i cant imagine how i mirror the exact same shape&lines to the other side... Thank you ! :)
