Cutting and welding the fenders on my Widebody 3000gt VR4
I decided to attempt cutting and welding the fenders on my 3000gt VR4. Just as a disclaimer I have no training on welding and this is basically my first time welding.

    good day brother, those lights look great, I was browsing the internet and I came across your video, congratulations, good video, well explanatory and detailed, coincidentally I was looking for ideas since I am rebuilding a 2001 Nissan Tsuru or as we know it here in Panama Nissan Sentra b13 which He brought me some round sports style lights but they are a little damaged, I wanted to give them a personalized touch and reuse them since the ones that come with the factory car are a bit ugly😄 I think that using your example I could give a second life to those lights since they do sell them, but I haven't found one to my liking, only that in my case I will have to make a sequential circuit for each set since my car only flashes when activating the turn signals. They are single bulb you earned my like and share the video greetings from Panama👍

    I made the decision to open up, paint and frost my headlights on my Q50. I wasn't happy with the finished frosted look of the upper (eyebrow) DRL lens. The lens has a reeded texture that's acts as a light diffuser, so I sanded the lens by hand and made them smooth as a freshly shaven ball sack. All by hand. It's crazy what us car guys will do!

    Just so you know, at least here in the US, a red reflector in required somewhere in the rear of the vehicle.

I doubt that it is enforced anymore and It's something I'd do knowing the law.

      It is possible but you would need to do some modifications. The nose section between the headlights would need to be taken in about 20mm on each side and modifications around the corner marker/turn signal. But you can buy a body kit that fits the 1st Gen that looks very close to the 3rd Gen bumper. www.3sx.com/3sx-custom-fiberglass-99-bumper-91-93-3000gt
