I don't understand all the hate in the comments. It's his car and he did the work himself so why is it dumb? I get the comments about making molds but it's his show and he did it his way. Not a lot of people can say they built their own CF wide body kit for their car in their garage.

Some people don't understand why it's better to do it yourself rather than buy ready made parts or pay someone else to do it. It's the sense of accomplishment, the fact that it's one of a kind and that you did it! Plus the skills you learn along the way 👌 great work 👍👍

Screw the haters in the comments. Congratulations on having a one-of-a-kind car.

This is awesome. The algorithm has brought this to my attention in Sept 2023 and I think you did a great job on this. Thanks for sharing.

I just spotted the same style kit on J.C.Whitney for $149. Complete. But I think I'll do it your way. Way COoLER. Cheers

Mad respect, the form from foam was a head scratcher until the co$t savings were seen. Great work!

That's a lot of time and effort. I admire people who have passion for something. Great job!

Damn, those are some really cool looking custom fender flares. I like the overall look with the oil sealed surface rust and minty green paint. Mint, brown and black really go well together. And that custom front bumper, so dope. I like how it has a "fisheye" effect at all times.

Wow, a lot of negative comments. You did an amazing job Kevin and i seriously dought anyone of these naysayers could build a model car from a box. I hope your ignoring them.😁

That is an incredible amount of hard work. That itself is a huge accomplishment. Only helps that it turned out sick AF! I love and hate the patina at the same time!! I agree with a lot of the comments. You should be making custom wide-body kit templates for a living

This is much better than the "how could you mess up an all original car" club. It's just a machine, enjoy it!!!

Gonna agree. I don't mind keeping stuff original, but if you don't plan on selling, why stay boring and with the whole "mold" society wants you to be in? I got a 2005 MK1 Velociti, one of the first ones that came out without the round shape in the taillights, and boy ain't she good. Still original at the moment, but I'm planning on making her look good and give her some customized options too, and instead of spending money on buying a new expensive stock car, I can use that money to make her my own, which could even be better and beat the living daylights out of an original stock car. That's my preference, but to each their own I guess. I dunno bout you, but "stock fanatics" are just boring people who's working their arses off just to pay off debt for a "faster new model" instead of sticking with what they have and making it better. I dunno, I'd get my hands dirty on a project instead of wearing a suit to pay off debt 🤷‍♂️

This is EXACTLY how people creatively figure out a different way, a better way a novel way..... a brilliant way at times.... to do something others are just mentally stuck only doing or buying because they aren't able to stop and come up with a different line of pursuit and FIND a different road.... Great job and my hats off to you and your future creative break-thru's!! Your effort and spirit are how some come up with some truly amazing things. Keep it up. Be you. Let others be them 😊

Nice I love them but if you would of just taken one more step you could of used them as plugs and made multiple kits, I thought that's what you were doing because that the route you took once you pulled them off and cleaned them up you just needed to stiffen the mold up and then seal it and you could of laid the carbon inside of the plug not on top and you would of kept those nice lines you created. Hey anyways it doesn't matter what you created is very nice I was just surprised because that's the way I thought you were going either way you did great and the panels came out amazing I am sure others will want to do the same as it looks so nice keep it up bro!

props dude that looked like a LOT of WORK

they came out WAY better than i thought they were.... GREAT WORK

You're getting a lot of flack here but you've also gotten some decent advice on future composite work. There's constructive criticism and then there are unhelpful assholes. Ignore the haters, keep learning, keep on making the things that matter to you.

this is awesome dude!

Damn… lotta work.

Nice work! What filler are you using over the foam? I have done drywall/sheetrock mud before. PVA will keep it from sticking to your composite layup 👍

Keep up the good work. Everyone starts somewhere.

That was fucking badass bro really enjoyed the video think I'm going to try this on one of my trucks thanks 🤙🤙🤙

Nice work! Question, what did you skim coat the foam with? Is that drywall compound? If so, what did you use to seal it prior glassing over it? Thanks

So does the foam have to be removed like does it deteriorate?

Once you had the final shape, and before you started applying the carbon fiber.... why didn't you use mold release and or wax?

Nice work im trying to work with steel it’s definitely fun but challenging since noone has really ever taught me how to do it.

How did you attach that thing to the body of the car? I mean which type of riveting or fastener did you use can you specify it? Btw loved the build process and the final result 🔥

Wow lots of work

Great work

Good start for sure. I personally, would have made it just carbon, with all the effort you went through to make it appear carbon. Doesn't deserve the ignorant comments though. May not have been in your budget or something. Still does what you intended for it to do. 🤷‍♂️

Looks pretty cool

Keep going brotha the creator of the FWB PORSCH was hated too and eventually became famous for it!!

Love this! A lot of work but the result is insane considering the DIY nature of it. Subbed!

Not bd for,your first time. Definitely saw some things for improvement but that’s how you learn

Looks amazing!! The only thing I would change personally and idk if this is just unfinished but I don’t like how the wheel arch is the same size if not smaller than the tires themselves, just me but I like to see a decent sized gap all the way around the tire

Amazing 😮❤
