    This seriously is one of the more legit RB install videos on youtube. I like how cleanly the rear was done & how actual sealer was used instead expanding foam.

    Props to you guys, it is the best job I've seen on youtube on the rear quartel panel sealling operation. It is a really clean job. Congrats. If I had to change one thing I would have first spray painted the edge where you grinded it just to be 100% sure rust won't get there

    • @ethownzbh

      I believe they did that on the last over fender install they did in the BAS2k.

    • @alexoehler1
      @alexoehler1 Před 7 lety

      You can see on the scene when they put the sealer it is bare metal, If you paint it would be best paint before sealer because it is bare metal

    1) Watching this at midnight after work probably wasn't the best idea, being the considerate bastard that I am, I kept fiddlin' with my speaker's volume as to not wake up my housemates.
    2) While I like RocketBunny kits, I couldn't possibly bring myself to put my 86 under the knife!
    3) I surely hope he gets wheels; and doesn't use massive spacers!
    4) Brilliant video, as always!

    i did a widebody on a porsche 10 years ago. i had some really beautiful anodized rivets. seems those would give you a nicer look.
    on the bumper couldn't you stick a small piece of sheet metal or aluminum behind it to give the rivet something to grab?

  • @tuber6577
    @tuber6577 Před 7 lety +1

    When you rivet in plastic, you can put a washer (same size as the rivet)on the back side to keep it from pulling through. It will pull way tighter too.I used to do it when fixing bumper covers at my old shop.

    Wheel spacers are like push-up bras, they make things look good, but when you start taking things off you realize it was all an illusion.

    • @djnekkon
      @djnekkon Před 7 lety

      If you do the math, wide wheels like 12 or 14 sacrifice the offset making very easy to extend the inner side of the wheels, if you have brembos or get too close to the suspension, you will have to use spacers. most people with wide body fenders are using spacers. skinny tires and wheels look bad with or without spacers, but they are rated by manufacturers,
