Agreed

Sure hope so!

It's been growing petty quickly so far but I hope not picks up even more. They were at less than 5k subs 2 weeks ago and they've almost tripled that. They do some damn good work

You guys inspire me to get a project car of my own one day when I have my own garage. I’ve been binging all your stuff it’s so good.

[@iantrumbore8744]

I bought the same front fenders and had the same warped flanges along the tops. I had to heat gun the hell out of them to get them to sit flat and correct, at the end of it all I got them to fit great but they required much more work than I expected after hearing how "great" shine parts were for years. I'm glad you share everything with no filter from the true standpoint of enthusiasts. Good work so far, I've been enjoying the series.

[@slightlyMADcustoms]

Awesome happy to have you here! Sure glad our fenders fit decent... can’t afford to buy other ones 😂😂

[@dante240sx]

[@mythos000000025]

Suggestion, cut away the brace, remove the hood latch, then weld it back in in reverse to keep the support for the front bumper strong but give you that room to mount the filter. Also to reuse what you got without making something unless needed

[@slightlyMADcustoms]

True true! Thank you

[@JordanPayneLV]

I’m thinking about DA sanding the body of my Z to get it ready for paint but I’m worried about downtime of the raw metal if it takes me a few weeks to do it. Do you have any treatment on the metal to preserve it during the build process??

[@slightlyMADcustoms]

If it’s inside it’s okay. You just don’t water on it. If you’re doing it outside then you’re best to end each workday spraying on some primer or something to protect the metal

Happy to help! Good luck on your car

[@duncan9751]

What are your plans for the rear overfenders? Are you going to keep the rivets exposed or do you plan on moulding it to the body? I think you should keep/add more cleco pins and go for that hedgehog-booty look

[@slightlyMADcustoms]

Ya were going to used exposed hardware. Keep the aggressive look

Does cutting the rear inners are necessary to fit? I own a 1995 rx7, and I am planning to do some work on it but I don’t really want to hurt my car.... please give me some advices. Peace!

[@slightlyMADcustoms]

I mean you don't have to cut the inner but it would look really weird with it left stock. also you have to harm your rear quarter anyways for the mounting hardware. If you want to leave your rear quarter the way it is, I would recommend only running the front fenders as you don't need to cut up your car. Look at @spool_sohard on Instagram, he has only the front fenders so you can see how that looks!

Are sparks flying not dangerous at all? You seem to have no concern whatsoever about sparks hitting your skin/clothes.

[@slightlyMADcustoms]

I mean I don’t know if I’m really qualified to answer this because I do regularly set myself on fire, but my biggest concern is not having open gasoline near by and not getting sparks in the eyes. Also sparks will damage paint and glass of nearby cars. But on the clothes and skin, not too bad
