Making One-off Fiberglass Guards! ❮NO MOLDS❯ ⛛ Cyberpunk Miata Build

Back to work on the Chimera! In this video we make a pair of one-off front over fenders to join the Rx7 front up with the rest of the car.
These fenders are a much more aggressive design and hopefully with the rear end you can start to get a feel for the style I'm going for with this iteration of the build.

this is the Primitive Technology quality video, no annoying background music, no talking, no sponsor. Keep up the good work sir!

[@thatautomotiveblog]

Cause he knows his shit is dope and he doesn't need anything else. This is brilliant.

[@quakxy_dukx]

When you said that you put the two post too close to the wall, I thought “maybe he could take down the wall” and you did it

[@AbcXyz-bg9lc]

normal people: I should relocate my car He: I will just tear down this wall

[@rellaaxiing]

Love' the fender falling off

[@jona_ej2330]

Love the track oriented wide body

[@TofuAutoWorks]

Thanks. That's sort of the direction I want to go, sort of like an ex-prototype race car that was repurposed as a dystopian wasteland courier vehicle.

[@RA-uj3nm]

Catching us off guard.....😂👍👍🍺🍺

[@TofuAutoWorks]

12 hours earlier than usual because my sleep deprived state hit AM instead of PM when scheduling. Lucky you guys, early video I guess hahah

[@kramer26]

Fun fact: "guards" are what Kiwis call fenders.

[@lucio1350]

Just when i was wondering how the build is going 😅

[@TofuAutoWorks]

I've been itching to get back into this build. Nice profile pic btw, FC_arts is the man.

[@Longboardfinch]

Just 2 days behind yah.. lol

[@lucio1350]

​@@TofuAutoWorksYeah Fc Arts is clearly on another league

[@user-nw3ij9lr9n]

This is the kind of Sculpture car guys like us definitely appreciate and like. Hand built body kit. So cool to watch.

[@oscarvayo7098]

this may be the coolest mx5 in the world kudos m8!!

[@TofuAutoWorks]

So cool it's gotten me blacklisted from several miata owners group pages and clubs haha

[@dinguth4695]

@@TofuAutoWorks time to start your own for all the other blacklisted folks, cuz you know they got some sick builds

[@CrazyCat229]

@@TofuAutoWorks why cuz you're making it look like a miata and and fd had a baby? I think its cool. I own an fd.

[@ym-us2ck]

You must be high

[@PlaneTMRS]

I love the shot at 45:01, it really showes how well your concept is working. I love the three steps the design is doing from fender edge, little flare edge and then to the turbo fan. Perfect proportions! I really love your work, can't wait to see more!

[@matthewhall435]

Love the kiwi coming out in your videos haha it's hard to work by the wall on this side of the shop takes the wall out with a shovel 😂 love it man keep it coming !

[@TofuAutoWorks]

Shovel is the best demolition tool haha, I'd be more kiwi and work in jandals but the comments section gets weird when I have my toes out 😂

[@danjamesdixon9835]

I love the little stabs of comedy here and there, they really add to the experience 😂

[@florianpinto9999]

I'm speechless!!!!! Every time I see your video, i'm impress by your competences and the prefect execution!!!! You share every detail and the product references an tips! thank you very much.

[@reed_reed]

Wooo, been looking forward to this one!

[@martinm4961]

This is 100% the right direction for the build!! The Cyber Roadster is evolving just as your skills are!! Can't wait to see what comes next!

[@arax20]

Love the more angular look you're going with. Really gives it a unique character rather than just a miata with add-ons.

[@akumabito2008]

the Miata is still my favorite project of yours...

[@itsBreadley]

amazing build man, happy to have been here for all of it

[@kuyayobs]

I love the way you pry the wall with a Shovel, a real chad!... love your Video btw, no BGM, no talking just pure work!

[@camber_courtney5250]

Hands down my favorite build on KZbin, can't wait to see what's next

[@user-ic7mv6bj4w]

I can see you in a few years time being a big time bodykit manufacturer. This is how all tbthe greats started off. Keep up the great work!

[@stlrocketman2625]

Great vid! I’m loving both builds at the moment, keep it up

[@viktorhecht33]

I love your CAD work❤

[@JoseRVB]

The Cyberpunk Miata takes the next level!!

[@ilanmatmon8252]

Can't wait to see the skirts and how they connect the front and the back together

[@TofuAutoWorks]

I know mate me too. This thing DESPERATELY needs some sideskirts and a little more going on in the rear to balance out the front now.

[@user-vf8ml1fc8z]

Just wanna say thank you for making these videos. You’ve really motivated and inspired me to pursue bodywork and you’re videos really help teach me a lot.

[@TofuRabbit]

Heck yeah more cyber-miata-rx7 progress, was super looking forward to this. Really in love with this project c:

[@SpookyGreg85]

Love the work man! Good to see the Miata get some love still

Omg give this man some money, he is taking apart the damn barn for building materials 🫣 Looks really cool on the drawing man btw 👍

[@LYC_44]

Dude this thing looks so dam cool! I love the fact you are putting flares on the front to help it match the back. I can’t wait to see this thing done

[@hajipainkiller5103]

My guy, this is amazing, its a super chill video, full enjoyable with no skipping parts.

[@schwarzesensen7760]

Can't wait for the final result!

[@alexx_please_6905]

I cannot get over how good this already looks!!! It looks like a porsche and an FD had a kid and sent it to racing school...this is the kind of quality build I hope to be able to do someday

[@z-trip5457]

Love this build, we need more cyberpunk builds!

[@MyYewTubeAccount]

This caught me by surprise! Normally I watch on a Sunday at the shop when I'm supposed to be closing the doors, today I get to watch before I leave 😍

[@Nokan38]

[@cherryblossomscarletokami9841]

I always forget to use expandable foam when I’m making a new or missing part. Always go for the clay or chicken wire but from now on i swear lol awesome skill on display here brother. Can’t wait to see this finished.
