Body Update !

After 3 days of work on the bumper skin project, the Carbon Fiber / Kevlar part is drying up into the mold as we speak.
Which should be ready to be removed tomorrow around dinner time!

I spend the last 2 hours applying the Epoxy.

How did the part turn out?

It wasnt perfect meaning there was still some air pockets which most can be easyly filled.
Btw it weight in at 2.5 lbs. And should be about 2.2 lbs once cut to the right size needed

As far as the diffuser .....

damn its BiG !!!!!

zefaulter · 03-01-2014, 04:06 PM

That doesn't look like the entire bumper. What's the final piece going to be? Just a cover for portion of the bumper?

Mr&Mrs · 03-01-2014, 04:50 PM

Nice work!

Preview Update on the Rear Project !

I fked up when I took the measurement for the diffuser in the beginning. I mixed up the wheel spec (350z 2007+) and I forgot the 25mm spacer was installed.

I had to bring the diffuser back home to un-assemble it, which is 50%/50% held by rivnuts and rivets and then cut it shorter !

Currently you see the CF/Kevlar bumper skin that is temporally in place for the picture which needs to be cut later on tonight or tomorrow to fit properly.

Please don't look at how bad the bumper skin look ! I haven't spend anytime to fix it yet. It still has some imprint of the release agent/wax from the mold and ofcourse some (lot) surface air bubbles...

Getting there. Looking good.

What's your plan for the licence plate area?

Track toy has no plate ! hehe

There will be 2 screw holes in the inside top portion of the middle hole for the handful of time the Z will go on the road....

Its gonna be a Cop magnet if I drive it often !
You haven't seen what is next ! hehe

synolimit · 03-05-2014, 08:32 PM

I think he meant what are you doing with the gaping hole.

right,, my bad....

there is a functional plan but its not a top priority as I still have to finish the diffuser , winglet , mounting brackets and the rear fenders

next is in this order after;
- new (used) coilovers install then look for the spring size I need 12-14 kg rear swift spring order , it came with a 10kg 8'' I think.
- remove AP racing BBK for rebuilt
- Side skirts
- front fender
- under body
- new splitter
- front bumper modification
- front brake duct
- hood
- more to come !!
