Freddyyyyy give Mat a slap for not wearing ppe cutting the carbon fibre, more deadlier than paint and wears a paint mask 😂. We all done stupid sh^t but seeing as you guys inspired me to chase my dream be nice if ya stuck around 😅
I owne a paint spraying business and people question our prices. Matt just proved if you go out and purchase all the equipment to do it yourself going to cost an absolute fortune. We spread the costs over years. Also preparing and painting a car is a real skill built over years. Had customers try it botch it and costs them more as we have to remove the mess they did and start all over again.
Body and paint work will always be the most expensive. Even if you do all the body work it still has to be painted. Wish i would of got into it bc with insurance work you will always have a job.
@@guitarrise4523 I do with my reviews and viewership "ow I wishes." And for the record, the video ended with me being totally annoyed with a sparkling clean car being "tested" by drifting it through a dirty field?? Who tests a GTR on it's offroad worthiness??? I was annoyed, left the channel, and gave it a thumbs down.
I am not a car enthusiast and have never ever watched car related videos on UA-cam. But since I've found Mat, his Dad and his crew, I can't get enough. Thank you guys for entertaining me with your crazy humour and interesting and creative videos. Keep up the excellent work.
Can I just say as a ex painter, how nice it is to watch someone who hasn't done any painting themselves to do the process themselves, the Right process for that kind of job aswell! And genuinely take on board what they are being told or shown!? Amazing first attempt Matt! Smashing it mate, keep it up!! 🤙🤙
I love the fact that Mat doesn't hide his mistakes. Loads of UA-camrs edit the video to make everything look perfect... Keeping it real is the reason we all love Mat so much. Great video, and the car is top-notch 👌
You’re such an entertaining UA-camr. 3 years back, I was in the hospital for a long surgery I had. It was my first surgery and I was 11 at the time. After my surgery, when I became conscious, I watched a video of you buying a body kit for your gt86 and it helped me stay calm
34:50 Mat I'm really concerned whenever you chop off carbon fibre without any protective mask. Its REALLY BAD for your lungs!!! Health should be your No.1 priority cause I really want to watch your videos for a long time!! Lots of love from S.Korea❤❤
Everyone ranting and raving about Mat's skill and vibe. I wholeheartedly agree. But a massive shout out to Matt the cameraman! He's my absolute favourite, and the unsung hero of the channel! Always a good video when Matt the cameraman is on the vid! Keep up the good work lads!
Being able to actually rebuild a car is a wonderful thing. Something that in Portugal is impossible because of the laws. But believe me, it's something I would love to be able to do one day. I love opening the engine of my Citroen Xsara and changing the belt, changing the brakes, anything I can do, I do it even without training in the area. I'm IT.... So seeing your work and your videos is something that makes me realize a dream and makes me happier. Thank you very much. And that GTR... One of my dream cars. Thanks
@@appelflapdrol Yes in Portugal tunning and car alterations are not allowed, anything that change the motor chassy wings etc need to present to get a special permition and have to be approved.

These challenge style videos are so fun and refreshing, I will never get sick of your classic videos, but these are such a nice break of pace. Love it.
Mat is living proof that if you love something and devote your life to it, you don’t need a formal education in whatever it is to be successful. Smashed it, loved watching this channel grow over the years.
@@kieranmcmahon1745 definitely not smearing a formal education, I’m saying people don’t need one to be successful. "A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one."

Love the vibe of ice blasting a GTR clean and repainting and within the same video just ripping through fields slamming mud and stones all up the sides 😂

Hi Matt, bodyshop owner here. The black charcoal “thing” is called a guide coat, as it guide you to where you should sand the panel. Really love your videos by the way.
Something to note, you should fully extend extension leads when pushing over 1Kw of power thru it (750w+350w), as the extension lead can overheat and melt the cable.
There not allowed to sell extension cables like that here in the uk. They all have to be rated to handle way more than what there listed for to stop melting and fires ect from occuring.
Nice one! Allied Automotive, It was super nice of you to help Matt and let him loan your booth, pass on some wisdom and do the clear coat. Good job Matt well done for 1st prep, prime and colour paint job. Enjoyable to watch and excellent content. Thank you once again!
I just love to see the difference between Mat who just stays himself, no 'trying to be funny' or changing as more populair his channel becomes and Freddy comes in the picture and you immediately see the difference (and what I mean...). That's why I love watching Mat's channel (and less Tavarish).
Great build this one. It's shocking how expensive painting is but it's worth it when your car looks great with great paintwork. One thing i will say is if you are using the both again make sure the power extension is pulled fully out when there is a big load on it as it can act as a coil and melt the cable, had it happen to me before the wire was all stuck together. 👍🏻
@@eduardoserranoaldana3688The fact that you put that “lmao” at the end of your comment so confidently, yet the under tray was also carbon fiber. LMAO.
Amazing finish mat, you lot are truly motivating people like us to start our own journey on YT I’m starting myn it’s all about buying and rebuilding stuff I always wanted till I get to my dream cars and motorcycles ❤ keep up the good work!!
You did great job for never have painted before. My first bodywork and vehicle paint job was my ‘78 Malibu in “Porsche red”. Your sanding prep was superb. Great job man.
The airborne paint booth was amongst the funniest few minutes you have had so far. It had all the elements of a disaster movie from the moment it started to rain. 🤣😂🤣👍🏽
And this, boy's and girls is the reason why a paintjob is expensive. There is so much manual labour that you don't see going on behind the screens. Great video Mat.
Totally addicted to your channel Mat! One Pro Tip: when drilling out your spot welds, run that drill as slow as possible. This will allow the bit to grab the metal better. Cheers Mate!
I knew it - The way you & Dad Tony knocked out the paint on those boot lifters on that Rolls-Royce last time, I knew you were going to di it yourself - well done! - What a tallent! (I'll include driving as the way you can drift is just a good as Becky Evans)👍👍👍 🤣🤣🤣 : You're only ment to blow the doors off 🤣🤣🤣
that color code is KAD (95% sure), can be absolute poison to match, so good choice blending the door and trim. Great work on this car, was fun to watch. People always underestimate the cost of body work and paint. It doesn't take much to get over $1000 products are not cheap, and the skill has years behind it. We aren't changing brakes and oil lol
OMG Mat you had me in stitches when you guys were running around trying keep you mobile booth up. Glad ot see you got the painting done the car looks pretty cool
this is precisely why i enjoy your videos mat, you actually bother to take the time to explain what it is your doing whilst your doing it, i learn something new every video bro, thank you! and it was certainly worth 5 grand for the equipment, as like you said you can reuse it, so in the future you will be able to save money, good investment in my mind
I love the car, but the wheels seem too plain for my taste. Japanese cars usually come with more stylish wheels. Upgrading to billet specialties or a set of weld double beadlocks could not only enhance the car's appearance but also increase its resale value. I'd like to consult a financial advisor to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of these upgrades.
he chose wheels he likes! also custom wheels and beadlocks are $$ beadlocks are more for functionality tho. would be like telling him to install hoodpins
After just recently having a go at painting parts for my M4 I can vouch for you and say it's not for the faint hearted. A lot of skill is needed to tackle a job like this, nice of the bodyshop to give you a helping hand it turned out green... I mean great😮😂😂
"Was it worth it?" For the shot alone at 38:15 .....absolutely. Iconic. Another banger production. Forgot to tally up the 300 pounds for the cheap inflatable paint room. But given that it being a dud saved you a MASSIVE amount of failure and potential disaster, the 300 pounds spent getting a free paint lesson from S-tier professionals paid for it tenfold. Such an amazing journey with this car. Life lessons and laughs with friends. Good stuff man.
I've grown up in the auto body and collision repair industry and watching the stuff at the body shop was super interesting. Especially being from the US and seeing that you guys do it almost exactly the same as we do in the states. You were right to have Chris lay down the clear because as you said its very easy to mess it up. Just a tad heavy and you'll have sags (like runs but think longer horizontally than vertically) and the orange peel it hard to get right without having done it before....loads of times lol. Came out great though! You should do another car in the blow up booth though cuz I'm pretty curious to see what sort of results you can get in there. Also really want to try Yfood but they don't sell in the US yet :(
Mat your living every man’s dream for real! So good to see!!!! Lil bit envy’s of you tbh like most of us watching but also so proud to see you succeeding and living your dreams💪🏼keep killing it man
Damn ive just found your channel after years! Last time i watched you were working on a car outside your house (small house) now i see you've upgraded!!! Makes me happy seeing people do well... Well done!!
As far as the car painting goes mate:- You can buy paint matched to the manufacturers paint code from several places in UK. Paint suit and mask not needed (although eye protection (glasses) and a decent mask (with filters) would be ideal. The anti static hose and the air dryer hose for paint. Not necessary at all. Paint gun - you can get a great job with a paint gun that's worth a third of the cost (hell ive seen £80 paint guns do a decent job just take your time and set the paint gun up properly). Sandpaper, brownpaper, painters tape etc are all cheap enough and are essentials. The sander again you could use a cheap one or use a hand sanding block. Not a criticism but definitely somethings worth thinking about
I cannot explain why this is my favorite video you’ve ever released. I love and appreciate your videos, and I even got my fiancé to start watching them with me
Matt love your content could watch it over and over . Now I've never seen anyone take a van on and spec it up I think you're the man for the job . I think a Vito would be a great van to do
Do you understand how much money you are going to save learning the skill of body work and paint? Every build you do needs these 2 skills. Can’t wait to see you improve and grow. Much love from the states.
Thanks guys. Having a stressful week and that tent gave me a real giggle. If it had floated up into the sky that would have been genius. Love this build more JDM stuff please 👍
i love watching all your vids just for the fact you said about it being so dirty underneath spend time and money to get it dry ice cleaned then at the end doing power slides and doughnuts in the back yard and enjoying the hell out of it keep it up mat its awesome
Thx for a great video showing the steps of painting a car and a great laugh. Well every one could take you money but knowledge can't be taken from you.
Whoa Matt!… you’ve done a terrific job on resurrecting the GTR, dry icing it and making it look great, then you go and dirt track it in the back garden, come on get a grip or you might end up like the ‘Lotto Lout’… ‘Earlier Mr Carroll had bought The Grange, a mansion near Swaffham, and turned his back garden into a banger racing track. That resulted in him being given an anti-social behaviour order (Asbo) for annoying his neighbours.’
Man, at this time 3.3M views and only 112K likes? Looks like a lot of haters and competitors are creeping because this video is sweet and full of gems!
I took a PMP exam today and unfortunately I didn’t get minimum required to pass that make me upset little bit, after watching Mat video I realized how they laugh for their mistakes and failures to give you hope energy to keep going and failure isn’t the End now I understand what’s the meaning of take it easy obviously 😊
Once again brilliant video, never get bore watching Mat’s projects , you’ve gained the knowledge and experience , priceless that , well done Mat, 👍Graham
I found myself laughing at your shock over the underside of that GTR. I come from a state in the US "rust belt" where honestly, one of the best undercoat protections you could want is oil and a healthy thick layer of dirt. Now, I'm aware that you don't see the kind of winters there as we do here so it probably isn't a common practice. I'm also VERY aware that anyone who would buy a GTR and drive it in the snow would be a bit nutty. I still found it funny that I didn't even blink at the sight of the GTR underbody.
I teach spary painting apprenticeships. You should always do a spray out card and clear coat it first. Check for opacity and colour. 😎🤙 Love your videos it's nice to see you having a go at it. Respect
Loved it 👌🏻love a gtr and love too see painting done and can’t wait to see more of it because skys the limit 👍🏻 That dry ice was awesome by the way 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm going to paint my P1 during a hurricane to show you how it's done

Paint gun - you can get a great job with a paint gun that's worth a third of the cost (hell ive seen £80 paint guns do a decent job just take your time and set the paint gun up properly).
Sandpaper, brownpaper, painters tape etc are all cheap enough and are essentials.
The sander again you could use a cheap one or use a hand sanding block.
Not a criticism but definitely somethings worth thinking about
Matt- as always you provide the best entertainment and teaching for fellows DIYs car enthusiasts. Thanks so much
I cannot explain why this is my favorite video you’ve ever released. I love and appreciate your videos, and I even got my fiancé to start watching them with me
The Colour of the Porsche Is amazing.... Love It.
Matt love your content could watch it over and over . Now I've never seen anyone take a van on and spec it up I think you're the man for the job . I think a Vito would be a great van to do
Do you understand how much money you are going to save learning the skill of body work and paint? Every build you do needs these 2 skills. Can’t wait to see you improve and grow. Much love from the states.
Been watching you for years , crazy how far you have come ! Fully deserved
Thanks guys. Having a stressful week and that tent gave me a real giggle. If it had floated up into the sky that would have been genius. Love this build more JDM stuff please 👍
Spends time and money getting the underneath cleaned and then does drifting in a field!! way to go Mat living the dream!
Amazing video again!
Can’t wait for the raffle for this one 🤞 my dream car and colour too
love you’re dad tony ace ace ace the happy man needed in every garage top top man who knows his stuff that man is a real dad and light to us all ❤
Skip to 11.15. You hear Matt and the crew just giggling like little girls! You guys are infectious! Love it

1.3 Million views in 21 hours…HELL YEAH MATT!!!!
Awesome work. It shows how many skill jobs there are in this industry. Big Respect.
Thx for a great video showing the steps of painting a car and a great laugh.
Well every one could take you money but knowledge can't be taken from you.
The Nissan GTR is by far my dream car.
I love everything about it and love the restoration video.
I hope to one day own my own
Whoa Matt!… you’ve done a terrific job on resurrecting the GTR, dry icing it and making it look great, then you go and dirt track it in the back garden, come on get a grip or you might end up like the ‘Lotto Lout’…
‘Earlier Mr Carroll had bought The Grange, a mansion near Swaffham, and turned his back garden into a banger racing track. That resulted in him being given an anti-social behaviour order (Asbo) for annoying his neighbours.’
Thanks so much man 🙌
The paint blunder. What a great video. Funny AF and honest AF
Man, at this time 3.3M views and only 112K likes? Looks like a lot of haters and competitors are creeping because this video is sweet and full of gems!
Man seeing the fun you have and just the true joy brining everyone such great content you can't ever go wrong keep the awesomeness coming
I took a PMP exam today and unfortunately I didn’t get minimum required to pass that make me upset little bit, after watching Mat video I realized how they laugh for their mistakes and failures to give you hope energy to keep going and failure isn’t the End now I understand what’s the meaning of take it easy obviously 😊
I love how Mat shows how not easy this stuff is, I’ve gotten myself in some tricky situations due to UA-camrs showing stuff as if it’s a piece of cake
Hell yeah Tavarish randomly walks into the video shoot. He cracks me up.
The GTR looks great, nice job on that blend! Sounded great too drifting in the field. As you say, weapon!
Once again brilliant video, never get bore watching Mat’s projects , you’ve gained the knowledge and experience , priceless that , well done Mat, 👍Graham
I like it when you try to keep the work inhouse. Makes it more authentic
I found myself laughing at your shock over the underside of that GTR. I come from a state in the US "rust belt" where honestly, one of the best undercoat protections you could want is oil and a healthy thick layer of dirt.
Now, I'm aware that you don't see the kind of winters there as we do here so it probably isn't a common practice. I'm also VERY aware that anyone who would buy a GTR and drive it in the snow would be a bit nutty.
I still found it funny that I didn't even blink at the sight of the GTR underbody.
Nice one matt that’s one hard colour to match and it looks spot on !
I teach spary painting apprenticeships. You should always do a spray out card and clear coat it first. Check for opacity and colour. 😎🤙 Love your videos it's nice to see you having a go at it.
Respect
That spray booth in the garden 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 wicked vid guys, it was a funny one , but end result was awesome, keep it coming 👏 👍👍👍👍😂
Loved it 👌🏻love a gtr and love too see painting done and can’t wait to see more of it because skys the limit 👍🏻

Love the small clips of Kev in the middle of some serious sentences. He's in his element at this house.
