      To get more subscribers he'd have to release videos much more frequently.

    Tip
    Unless it’s a track only car you will want to basically close off those fender vents.
    As cool as they look they’re an absolute nightmare on road cars especially in the wet with an open cockpit.
    At the very least you should fit a deflection shield to duct the road grim away from them so it doesn’t spray out.
    BUT
    It’s looking really good 👍
    Another tip
    The ordinary masking tape it is really terrible for fine work and the glue is horrible to get off if it’s left on for more than a few days.
    So it pays to use the expensive coloured stuff as it bends better, removes easier and the glue usually doesn’t turn into stone.

    Thanks for the update, I've missed you! As mentioned below, your attentian to detail is top notch and keeps me wanting to watch, Oh and the car is a big attraction too! British Grand Prix Quali is about to start. Daughter & grandson are there and it's raining.

    Off the top of my head, I think that's a great idea, because that area will see flex.

    You could use a straight edge and wood router to machine the front clam to recess the wheel-well vents

    • @johngreen8693
      @johngreen8693 24 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Yes, but there are complex curves on the bodywork. I'd have done the same as Dan!

    • @ashleyharvey6
      @ashleyharvey6 24 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes that’s why the straight edge needs to be something like plastic ruler…so it flexes while still guiding the router

  • @ultimaevo77
    @ultimaevo77 25 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Car is looking amazing but you need to get those vents recessed, they look so much better when they are. Use a Dremel sanding bit and take your time.

    Wise not recessing. I know all too well the "pucker" moments. On my Hurricane Cobra I angled the dash slightly to mount a heater (mounted center so I could use a glove box) so now I have to trim the cowl very slightly.

    Love the carbon on black! Would you be able to swap the low beams for HID projectors? I don't mind LED, but I'm a sucker for good ol Xenon.

    What do you think about under mount fender vents?

    • @DanDulac
      @DanDulac  28 วันที่ผ่านมา

      That could work. But I’d have to figure how to ‘finish’ the edges of the square hole so it blends with the bodywork. The vents I used are designed to sit on top but I have seen aluminum vents that could be mounted from below.

    all good, but why high beams are outside, and low beams on inside?

    • @DanDulac
      @DanDulac  22 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Great question! But this is how they came from the factory. I suppose I could swap them on the brackets as I believe they are identical diameter. 🤷‍♂️
