I've said it before and I'll say it again; This is ART. F*cking Beautiful Mate, your attention to detail every step of the process is impeccable.
Your videos are helping me get the guts to try and make my own one-off fiberglass parts. Appreciate you

He did all that work to only see that making them out of Carbon-Fiber would save him an extra Kg. However, to also state that skipping breakfast would save him an extra Kg also. So instead I would recommend you skip breakfast just a few more times, and you will also save that same 4.5 Kg.
I continue to be astounded by your attention to detail and willingness to even look in the general direction of CSM without gloves on. Looks great! Gaps / shut lines are much better than the factory ones!
I have been making molds for over 47 years. I do custom fabrication on yachts. Your pretty good. It's fun watching someone else do all the work.
Good job Mate, the Wings fit as good as a Factory Wing & we appreciate you showing & admiting that you made some mistakes, you're only Human afterall 👍👍👍
22:44 "The most important safety gear of all, big hat." 😅 This cracked me up Man. 🤣
It’s crazy how you can cut/grind fiberglass while wearing tank tops and slippers. I get itchy just by watching your videos. Besides that, love your craft bro. Aloha from Hawaii.

Yeah it's a trade off. It's been crazy hot here the past few months and I'd rather be covered in fiberglass than sweating like mad in some overalls. Chur
Man when that fender popped out of the mold i was just blown away. The Part looks absolutely perfect right out of the mold. You´ve got some skills my god, excited to try this myself soon for my miata. Thank you for these videos! Greetings from Germany
You should be stoked with that result! They look awesome! And fit perfect. A lot of work has gone into these and every bit of it shows in the final result. Great work! Been good to watch the process too. Can’t wait to see the next additions 👍🏻
I think you are dreaming all night about fiberglass... Nice job man !!
I hope your channel will gain millions, so when you're huge I can say "yeah, been following this dude since cyberpunk miata"
Mate you make alot of work for yourself. I seen a dozen things that didn't need to be done.But very awesome that you gave composites ago I take my hat off to you for showing people composites can be done at home
You are truly an artist....wizard if you will....as you perform magic with fibre glass. Also, i do love your safety jandals

@@TofuAutoWorks hahahaha, ive seen in some episodes you lost the battle against working bare foot
👍 Каждый раз когда захожу в ютюб, жду новую серию от тебя! Мне очень нравится твоя работа. Продолжай радовать нас новыми эпизодами! Удачи тебе!
Да мужик упорства у тебя вагон и маленькая тележка. Крутые детали получились. Браво👍
I started a little composite shop two years ago, and my skill sets just now getting good enough to make parts
By the time this guy is done, the R36 is out. Ok but jokes aside, I admire your attention to detail. 😀
Marvelous works. The gaps look really clean and equally flushed. Nice!
you really have to say respect from zero to such a really great part you could say it's from the aftermarket so good it looks
10:10 The man even has a sofisticated Red Device to look for Air bubbles in Fibreglass
The amount of work here is astounding and your skill is highly admirable. Very well done. Your style of video is refreshing and very welcome in a sea of trash content. Thank you for your contributions.
You're representing NZ. Such awesome skills. I'm keen what to see what you do next.
You got craftsman’s hands brother..Great skill set to have!You can make anything you want..Nissan is lookin cool..Miata was a killer
I love the inlays of your Logo It looks awesome
what a professional finnish, im a big fan of stock body, but im sure with the detail you put into this the wide body will look amazing too
Oooohhhh yeah. Gimme that attention to detail. You know the way I like it...
good job for today. Excellent work! I want the tail lamp to be 35GTR! I've never seen a Stagea that even changed the tail lamps!
Was wondering when another video would be posted. Congratulations on another incredible work.
日本語字幕ありがとうございます。とても丁寧な仕事で 感動しています。
A wonderful video, a follower from Morocco, North Africa, good luck my brother

Немного завидую вашему климату 😁 Отлично, как всегда, вдохновляет на качественную работу 👍🏻
There is no way to do it more perfect.... all the little details - it's just wow! And the result looks more than perfect! No one would belive that this is a "diy garage project"
Respek man, that fibreglass itch. You da man! Lol
