✋I like watching the process, don't worry about me getting bored watching the little things and I am sure there are many others that feel this way as well.
"In case you guys ever have to do anything like this"...exactly my case. Dusted off this episode to fit a fiberglass front spoiler to my '78 Champagne Edition Scirocco. Side aft portion was too long so your technique was exactly what I needed. Thank you!
Chip brushes are a necessity! Problems show up when they shed. Get a large bottle of thin CA from your local hobby shop, punch holes in a box stick a bunch of brushes in the holes and squirt some CA in the brush at the Crimp band.
fit is amazing, this whole build has been so cool to watch, I've binged it all in a few days and I can't wait to see all the progress to come!! it's so amazing to have so much knowledge and creativity to modify things the way you want, love it!
Props to you for stepping back to take the time to get it right. I keep having to remind myself of this on my project, it's so tempting to rush so you see progress. But the final paint job happens at this stage, not when the trigger is pulled.
It depends what's your epoxy resin pot time. Especially those which are also suitable for casting tend to have pretty long one. I binge watched whole series and this is my first episode watched on release. Props for persistence and good luck! Sidenote, regarding soldering and bodywork epoxy products, I recently faced similiar choices and I went with Terosol Body Repair solution (but there are made by Sika, AkzoNobel, 3M etc.). I think it might be worth to find good professional product line and stick with it.
Still loving the build! Just a note on pronunciation: Lauern Teile is not "Lauren Teel." If you rhyme "low" with "ow," it's more like "LOW-airn TILE-uh."
Sew, if I were you I'd grind the fibered bondo off, relieve the gel coat and some glass over the joint cuts and do a layup of 2-3oz cloth patches then 3or 4 layers chopped mat stranded. This will ensure no cracks on the exterior surface of the bumper after paint. Really a pisser when it does happen... 😖

Cool man, thanks.

Well that's killer! Very happy to hear that.

Michael, cars looking awesome man! I'm probably going to have to do the exact same thing on my project too! Thanks for preparing me...ha ha ha!
I’m glad it landed!
Dang man. that back bumper turned out pretty sweet. And ol' Ben giving you the moral support to make it all nice. haha.
Amazing, is looking great loved the active aero, greetings from mexico
Looking great Michael👋👍
Great work, Michael!
Thanks!
You should invest in an Eastwood shrinker stretcher to make custom panel edges. Very easy to use and a very small learning curve. Nice lines though.
Would love one!
When you tell people you have 200 hours in a bumper and they don’t believe, show them the video!! Killer job !

Excellent work!
Thanks!
I agree, the fit looks great . Going to look amazing when you have it all dialed in with the lights!
Yes!
Great stuff.👍👍🛠
I'm really getting my head around how to make a DIY on my 911 bumpers. 👍
Looking forward to the next episode.
Excellent! Thanks for watching Sven!
Good stuff! Did something similar with my front IROC bumper. Takes time but worth it!
Totally worth it!
I love what you do! Keep up the great work. Super excited to see what’s next.
