Bit of a mod Options

[vsideboy]

Some of you know I got the new car a couple of months ago, but I really wanted to transfer my bodykit from my old car to the new one, along with a little bit of modding. See what ya think.

Old car and bodykit on the left, new car on the right.


Made a fibreglass mould from the new cars bumper scoop, and made a fibreglass copy of the scoop


Bit of chopping, bit of bonding and filling later



bit of paint


and we have an almost finished product


now just needs a good polish to buff the freshly sanded paint back to be shiny again.

cheers guys, i'll have a think about the step by steps of how to succeed with fibreglass.

what would be preferable? Just a basic this is how to do a basic bit of glassing or this is exactly how I made it?

Something that includes all the products and tools needed, including specific brand names you prefer.
How to take a fiberglass mold of something.
How to use that mold to make a fiberglass part. How to separate one from the other.
How to affix to a plastic or metal panel, how to feather in the edges.
Any other tips and tricks you've learned over the years.

That's all I can think of at the moment.
