Absolutely, so many people are willing to do the wrong things and somehow thinks it makes sense to upload it and act like some sort of teacher. Theres a few guys I watch that still take it seriously but many dont. Heck I’ve been seeing videos where the comments get spun up because they are doing it wrong and the next video they are mocking the comments. If you are gonna do the wrong thing just dont upload lol.

Excellent work! I feel like your design style has evolved so much for the better from the Mazda. Your choice of lines and the width of the flares keep it very tasteful. Looking forward to the next episode! 😃
@TofuAutoWorks Жыл бұрын
Yeah I definitely feel that too. I'm putting more thought into the functionality of the design rather than just "Let's make the widest widebody I can" which was my design philosophy on the Mx5.

I don't know if you're already planning on doing it but I think that since the front fenders won't be covering the whole bumper you should maybe add a canard or something along those lines to make the car look lower and complete the front end. Awesome progress, can't wait to see the finished parts! This car might even dethrone the RS6 Avant as my favorite wagon ever.

The end result looked absolutely fantastic. Just goes to show how good these kits can look when you know what you're doing. Hats off to you.

If you make fiberglass negative molds of these these modified body pannels... you then coat the molds negative molds with thin slip plaster of Sheetrock 90 drywall plaster the sandable kind (white and blue bag) and reinforce the slip coat with plaster cast strips until thick enough that the positive plug won't deform when demolded, then use the positive plug to vacuum form polymer panels that never rust and sell them. You would want to get the design of your aftermarket polymer pannel patented if you want to sell them to a manufacturer of least the pattents to be produced and receive royalties. This is how duplication would be done old school from a old school Gen Xer like me.

This thing is shaping up to be epic! I think it would look much cleaner if you did the front flare as a single piece, it's like 30 seconds more work to unbolt it before removing the bumper. Also, if you're planning on using rivnuts, get the ones for plastic on the bumper! They make a huge difference compared to the sheet metal ones that just rip out of you look at them wrong. Keep up the great work!
@TofuAutoWorks Жыл бұрын
Making the flares in a single piece was the plan originally. But I've decided I can make the kit much easier to produce and install if I fix the widebody to the actual fenders / sideskirts and produce them as a single part. Similar to what other companies have done with kits like the Rocket Bunny S14 Boss kit. For fasteners I'll be using rubber well nuts since they dont shake loose with vibrations or lead to galvanic corrosion like the rivnuts can.
