What are your plans for the front fenders? If there is any.. Same treatment as the rears?
Good for you sticking with it when it didnt
turn out right initially

Yeah, I am going to do the whole fender with a flare integrated but some problems interfere

First: I have minimum access to the car from the 15 December to 15 March so I am going to make some wider side skirts and wider rear valence by the time I can’t work on the car

Second: the front wheels are really big so I put tension arms and pull the wheels as much as I could but now it hits the fender loll! So I have to adjust that but I can’t unpull because its going to hit the firewall I am fucked a little at this point, my easier option would be to cut/weld the fire wall or make the whole bumper wider and that is not going to happen, I love my bumper whit the pignose lip

Plasticine


Looks good so far


Forgot the gas tank hole lol


Fiberglass


The mold


right side is still the mold


fiberglass in the mold


now this was bad, I was hurry when I did the fiberglass in the mold so I did some steps wrong, I put too much realest agent and didn’t wait for it to dry properly, that made my fiberglass never came dry, it staid wet and soft.
so I had the idea, wash them with water, put them back together and put fiberglass resin inside the overfender that way itw will become hard, it worked, happy endings this time lol


finaly right side is done


side view


finition putty


both sides


had to cut the flare again, the car si 2cm higher on the right side i never saw it and now i'm paying for it


weight reduce lolll


flare mold


flare mold


fiberglass


a ruff unmolding


its gonna fit proprely


new flare


couple of hours later


ass

I think around 1000$ for the 4 fenders front and back, depends on how much the final mould cost and how much i pay each piece, i won't do the production by my shelf. I am goin to explain in time!

Pain in the ass but it will be worth it. Have you ever thought about using different materials then fiberglass just because the durability off it.

yeah but fiberglass is what i know the best and it’s not that hard to work with when you practice a little, it’s like a food recipe when you like it you stick to it lol
