  • Modifying a 1992 Mercedes-Benz 190E into an Evo 2 for under $20,000. The question is can I do it before June 7th when I set off for Wek Fest Seattle and DRIVEN Car Show Vancouver.
    In this video we are doing bodywork in prep for Driven Calgary.
    Thanks for watching!

      I mean the man is getting cooked in the comments under nearly every video, but it seemed like he didnt buy the cheapest kit and just got unlucky on the quality. Plenty of youtubers dont do the work themselves and just pay somebody to do it, I am just happy I can see skillful people like Jason work. No shame getting the bodykit done profesionally. Only weird thing is he didnt start with maintenance first, but hopefully he will do it before he actually starts travelling

    Bruhhh your videos have very little progress not gonna lie like at this point other youtubers would have been done with 80% of the car but i guess that’s the price of being a small youtuber eventually you will grow and be more efficient and talented. Good luck, man❤

      As a small youtuber myself, you have to pay for EVERYTHING. You make so little until the views are mega, so everything is paid out of pocket. It's all in the hope that one day it'll come that the channel will pay for more, but until then it's hard

    Id have skimmed the whole surface of the bumpers with filler and blocked back straight, seems more work but way quicker than sanding and filling all the little lows seperately. Id also be taking moulds of the primed items and banging out your own kits!

      I dont know but it would make sense yo keep it like that bc the 190e has a insanly good engine not very powerful but it will last a lifetime the 190e even has a world record back in the day for driving the most time non stop, so i think he will just modify the engine he has now but we will see

    the bodykit you bought is worthless. Probably cost you more to fix it than it did to buy it. As friendly as you seem this is taking the piss. Imagine how many other people will be scammed by this and you'll still do nothing. I'd be demanding my money back & taking legal action. Disgraceful.
    Jason is cool and super helpful but he's just repairing a kit that should have been ready to fit!
