So, are you guys making the parts out of fiberglass first and then using that to lay the carbon fiber on to make the fiberglass parts?

Did you forget to use the word Carbon fibre in there somewhere, Saijin?

No, that is just the cast for making the carbon part.

Oh wow, my post still doesn't make sense. So yeah, you are making a fiberglass cast to make carbon fiber parts. Okay, we're clear. Sorry, I was very tired that day

I've met some Swedish folks with modded cars, i thought they were crazy for having it be a race car and having it be street legal. But you sir are way overboard. Im trying to picture your car in my mind on a city street and people there are turnin' their heads!

More like... Turning heads before they even see the car!

holy ****, I went through 8 pairs of shorts reading through all 35 pages of this thread. All I can say is that you truly inspired me to keep my 190E-16V. A car doesn't have to be 2011 to look bad ***. Keep up the good work and keep it OG my man.

Question regarding carbon fibre work. Did you make a mold of the fenders then create a fiberglass mold of that to then make the carbon fibre piece? I am looking to start doing carbon work with smaller items that dont require such skill.

We are pretty crazy here in the north. We realy like our cars racemodded.
I hope they will turn ther heads... but my main reason is to break the Nurburgring record for street leagel cars. Thats why!

I remember when I first stumbled on this thread, it was quite a while ago. Seeing this build was a major catalyst in my decision to start searching for 500E of my own. Can't wait to see this thing done!
