Chris, so missed your vlogs! Great news on the job front; guessing you’re doing bodywork/car stuff? Anyway, hope that goes well for you. You may not remember, but I told you, you had inspired me to tackle a twin diffuser/exhaust surround on my Z12 Cube. I finished them and for a first effort I’m really pleased. No doubt you’ll consider to inspire me to do more! Love this side skirt set up, going to look sick❤️🔥
Nice to see you uploading again.
If you're using front arches on the rear, swap them left to right so the taper towards the bumper goes the right way :)
Good to be back on it dude.
Definitely man! Got to get that flow right!
It looks great but its hard to tell at this stage.
Love your work, this is turning out excellent 👌 21:37
Thanks man! Yeah it’s only going to start to look complete when I get going on the rear overfenders.
I’m considering putting in a swoop in the skirts to make it look a little less boxy.
@@BuildCreate that would look good 💯
Congrats mate, glad to see you back lol
Cheers dude!
Awesome job Chris! its gunna look so cool once done! look forward to seeing what you do with the rear!
Thanks dude!
Hopefully starting on the rear soon. Just got to get the other skirt done to a certain point so I have a good, even base to start with.
Looks awesome dude loving your vision with this truck it’s gonna be something very special when your done 👍
Thanks dude!! It’s super hard to explain how it looks in my head, I just have to start making it and see if I’m right 😂
Congrats on the job, great news 🍻
Side skirt looks mad, real head scratcher to get that done, i wouldnt know where to start. Well done 👍
Thanks dude! It’s a huge relief for sure.
Yeah, it’s taken me a long time to really get stuck into them. Took a whole bunch of staring at them to work out how to do it in my head.
Yes Chris! Loving the fibreglass content again! The rear of the skirt could be more easily blended by cutting along that middle crease that gives the lil lip. That way you can keep that deep look going all the way to the back, and then just fibreglass the crease back so it's deeper than it was before. (Hope that makes sense XD)
Is the Brat going to get some nice JDM wheels like the SVX?
Glad you like it dude!
Yeah that’s the plan with the back of the skirt!
Wheel wise I’ll be running my JDM 2 piece wheels. I’ll have to get customs lips made for the rear. The lips will end up being 6inchs deep from my rough calculations 😂
I absolutely love watching your work and learning along the way!
Well done on the new job, and I'm glad you are back 😎😎
Thanks man! Stoked people enjoy watching and can get something out of it!
Definitely glad to be earning money again. Got really worrying at one point.
Keep up the stellar work! Loving the build.
Thanks man!! Definitely not stopping anytime soon 🤙🏻
Great work! Looks amazing.
Thank you so much dude!!
Nice work good to see you back 👍
Thanks man! Feels good to get back on it and make some progress again.
Keep at it; looking great! Welcome back.
Thanks man! It’s nice to finally see some bits take shape.
Welcome back! And congrats on employment!
Thanks man! Not having a job was a very stressful time. Super thankful to have one again.
Looks awesome as always bud.
Thanks homie!!
Clever bloke , looks bloody good !!
Thank you dude!!
Nice work 😊
Thank you dude!
Still LOVE your work. Excellent.
Thank you so much dude!! It’s really appreciated!
@@BuildCreate pleasure.
I've watched that BRAT evolve.
Gives me confidence with my project 😉
im planning making BN Sports style bodykit for Corolla KE been collecting rear bumper and side skirts left after got all of it, making template to extend the lower parts of these three parts
Sounds great dude! Stoked more people are doing their own thing.
@@BuildCreate hate the oldschool looks, i try my best to remove all the chromes and R&D it which prevents from collecting rainwater on some critical spots
Cool vid dude! Love the wide look. Off topic is that a Mongoose hanging up at the back of the garage? 🚲
Thanks Matt!! It’s a Royce union, had it stashed away for years. Definitely want to restore it at some point.
@@BuildCreate Nice! Very cool bike. 👍
Looks super dope! You do such clean work. Lots of patience. Just out of curiosity, do you use polyester or epoxy resin? I know how bad polyester reeks and kicks quickly.
Ah thanks man! I’m in a constant state of self loathing when it comes to my work 😂.
Yup, good ol stinky polyester. I’m gonna switch to epoxy when I do the rears, it’s such a large area and I need the time before it starts to harden.
Very nice fabrication methods 😃
Cheers dude!!
Talk about an aggressive look,Chris! Nice progress going. What's the story on your bmx hanging up there? I'm a bike guy too.
Yeah it’s definitely stepped it up!
I’ve had it sat in my father’s garage for over 15 years. I picked it up from a local used bike shop.
It’s nothing special, I think it’s an early 90’s Royce union.
@@BuildCreate Vintage Royce is still all good!
@@01FozzyS I love it dude. I know it’s not a big money bike, but it rides really well! Definitely want to restore it at some point.
All that trouble with the fiberglass and you could’ve just used aluminum. Powder coat it and rivet it all together.
Wat
Your partner is going to step on it exiting the car :)
I might turn it into a water slide 😂
