For anyone thats thinking this means we won't be building carbon body parts. Please just remember we still need to build a roof, doors, fender extensions, a custom rear wide body kit, and interior/exterior accents. So rest assured we will still be doing plenty of carbon work to come on this build.
Honestly, building a carbon fiber body from scratch as a first timer is super, crazy, insane ambitious… Kind of glad you chose to buy a body because I know you’ll do everything else in between friggin awesome. 🤘
@Chris, I'm sure I'm not the only one who thought you were "biting of more than you can chew", not that I'm underestimating your abilities, I'm sure you CAN build an entire carbon fibre body, just not within the time frame, having never done any carbon fibre work. Personally, I think you made the SMART choice...
Go for white. You've done a lot towards a future exposed carbon build. So save it for the exposed carbon fiber Pagani that you're eventually gonna get :p
@@earthtonesbass Bad idea, wrapping 'fake' carbon over real carbon. Right track though could do a thin layer of paint or some almost translucent paint/wrap that leaves the carbon exposed like on other super cars.
Sand the Outside till you hit the Fiber then Add Resin SAND the Back add a Layer of Resin Use the Carbon Fiber Damage as Battle Scars will give it a Future Rat Rod look
Yeah this! He keeps saying that he wants that crazy "found in a future scrapyard" look but then keeps going on about scratches and battlescars. At this point i don't think even he knows what kind of car he wants to build haha
Chris, personally I vote wrap it white for this year and then once you get some more practice at working with carbon (call your buddies over at Street Banditos, the 240z taillights were sick) then after SEMA worry about more of the look, molding, and making a full carbon kit.
Building the entire car via molds would take a year to get right (I make molds for aircraft parts), this is just as amazing but actually doable in the amount of time you have.
What happened to the air box, ducts, engine cover for the kit? Those were all in the listing online too. Also it would be crazy if you did over the roof scoops in carbon to feed the turbos like the super trofeo evo!
The roof scoop sounds way cool but I'd play around in 3D land.... Wide lowpro...high narrow.... placement.....area needed for cfm...lots of questions come to mind.... Does sound cool though...👍👍
I kinda like how raw it looks now. My first thought was just leave the body as is but absolutely COVER it in stickers! Get your community to send stickers in from all over the works and just cover it. That would be sick.
Screw the carbon fiber look, that white model you had made looks sexy as hell. Only thing i dont like about the new body it that super round front bumper, i love the way the sharp, agressive stock bumper looks on the huracan and love the bumper on the render even more. Love the build so far!
Finding that body was kismet. Don't overcomplicate it trying to skin it with carbon. Make it solid, functional, and finished. Wrap it and keep moving forward. You'll get another chance to fabricate carbon panels.
@@captainel7196 I agree too! Shane designs were showing some awesome new type of wrap that was awesome! I'll bet they could do this wrap in white carbon fiber
When I said on the other videos just buy the doors and other stuff because it would take a lot of time and work to make the carbon fiber parts to look perfect everyone told me that i'm crazy and that it would never do that. So great to see you bought that kit. It comes really nice alltogether.✌
I think he meant that he’s behind schedule because he had plans to build most of the body in carbon fiber. By buying the majority of the body panels he’s accelerated the process by a large amount
ThierryTheuns I know from watching other automotive RU-vid channels that at least some supercar owners do watch these videos and that might not be the only kind of thing this scammer guy does. He might sell other items or services as well.
*Tip: don't use armorAll on lambo dash or interior, it can crack ths leather dash, i learned it the hard way* Also buying carbon Trofeo GT3 Lambo kit from factory is much easier. Even though its expensive.
It is true.. if the product have sillicone it will dry out the dash and start to pull the leather around.. and armorall has sillicone in many of there products
@@oscarkristiansson6127 Plasticizers* not silicone and you should use amoralls products designed for the purpose ie leather conditioner for leather products and original protectant for plastic vinyls rubbers etc. I've been using their products for 15 years without issues.
USER ERROR is not the companies fault. Like the guy above me said, use a wipe designed for vinyl then of course it might go wrong, use the proper leather conditioner and you’ll have no issues.
Since you have a few parts to make of carbon fiber I would go for that "blend" look. What I mean is that you can paint the whole car leaving the carbon fiber parts 80%missed. After clear coating the whole thing you will be able to see some carbon fiber under the paint.
I loved your original idea but you definitely needed much more time to do it. 90 days was just really pushing the envelope. I'm glad you found the body to help get it done faster! No matter what, it's still going to be a badass build! I hope I can get some tickets to SEMA to see it! P. S. My Dad had a 1970 240Z. It brought back fond childhood memories and your build was friggin amazing.
Spotted the Evora today while on my lunch break, wanted to respect your privacy so I didn't want to take pictures or anything. Would of been cool to meet you though, been watching for a few years.
@@JohnMiller2 Evora was clearly parked near his house. Maybe if it was at a random location, sure. But I don't think any RU-vidr want's fans outside their house trying to say hi.
I agree with the previous comment about weathering the car. I keeps with your original thoughts of a “kid finding in a junkyard in 2075“ and rehabbing.
if you cover your parts in carbon, your headlight isn't gonna fit anymore. just repair them and wrap or paint them. it will be the easiest in the long run
Overlaying with carbon would result in the loss of detail quality of the car. Don’t do it... Like the white design, maybe consider doing a Matt Black or Metallic Grey...(The futuristic brushed aluminum Delorean comes to mind) Hope that helps!🤙🏻 Looking forward to this build!
I think leaving the parts unwrapped would be pretty cool. It fits your original vision of the “junkyard” huracán. All the imperfections add even extra character to a car with a crazy story
I like the junkie vision also. Leave the racing stickers as it sits now ( I dig the Poland front ones!). New parts try and make perfect but no worries if they are not. Go crazy sick on wide wheels!
I say finish the build completely with the parts you have, Shake down run and then with the time you have left, pull one panel at a time and make it carbon. BRING IN STREET BANDITO!
Keep to the concept design look. Repair the panels and white vinyl wrap. We all know when working on cars things don't work out and reality/cost changes your decision. This is a budget lambo too. Gotta do what you gotta do 🤙
Love the “short cut” body. You now have so much time to get the add on pieces look really good. Hopefully this means we get the white lambo build. It will still be a monster and looking good too, this is bisforbuild, not a carbon fiber how-to channel.
The white looks sick. I was hoping something would make it a more real possibility. And screw anyone that gives you hell for making a business decision. You have a timeline and agreements to fulfill. I do hope you make some changes to the bumper though; it's a little vanilla for your super stallion.
Custom wide body LS Swapped lambo is still impressive without stretching yourself for the sake of all carbon fibre panels. Follow the mocked design an run with it, minus the carbon. Will still look the business 👌🏻 White sounds nice.. just boring on its own. Maybe Throw a loud neon colour advertising b is for build. Really enjoying watching these cars take shape, great content. Keep them coming 👍🏻 Chris
I love the story of the kid in the future building a barnfind lambo, that kid would leave the racing decals, not so much with the lettered ones, but that kid would love the racing flag and red details on the frunk
I love Chris's builds because they always have SO MUCH patina. Like the 240 when it was all different colors before he wrapped it. A lot of people liked that look and same with the racing graphics on this one. They look amazing! And if this was a super cheap, zero f-cks given build that WOULD 100% be the way to go. But this is a Sema build and I know it's gonna look SICK in white with the carbon fiber accents everywhere!
Kris has no idea what he just bought. Its not just any 2018 Trofeo parts, that car was driven by many famous drivers, including 2nd place Le Mans GT3 winner.That car was a bad arse, well actually still is, they just upgraded the body panels to 2019 GT3 spec. wrc.net.pl/app/uploads/2018/07/050-1-e1530985018213.jpg
There's a long learning curve before you'll get the science down to legitimately fabricate or wrap carbon fiber body panels. There's a reason why the technology is expensive and not easily accessible.
Looking awesome. Nice to see you found a nice solution for the full custom carbon fibre build. Please don't forget about the interior, as you mentioned at the beginning, "you have to sit in the thing!".
In all reality the wide body looks amazing on the vehicle. Saves ALOT of time an since its fiberglass you can alter the shape some to make it your own! Looks great!
Carbon Wrap it Chris, get this thing rolling, and revisit the “full carbon” option later, vinyl wrapping can give your temporary theme!! Make it very Mad Max..
I love this build! The Super Trofeo body was a genius buy to save time, since it was a wash on cost. I have always loved Kit Cars (Replicas more than the unique designs) so doing this kind of "Reverse Kit Car" is just plain AWESOMENESS.
Don't use structural carbon sheets to over lay the parts if you go that route. They make carbon fiber veneers (rear carbon with a finished face that you resin bond to the panel)
I love the fact that you took this route! Building the panels looked painful and was taking too much time. Modify this body the way you want and have some stress free construction!
Kinda agree with this.. if he want it too look rat rod just leave the body panels as is .. if worried about the cracks spreading chuck some body tape on the cracks to hold it together and look more junkyard.
my 2 cents, wrap and white, done. It looks awesome even without significant change. Like you said, sponsors are helping with this so delivery first, personal interest second. Your sponsors would be crazy if they didn't like the finished product as it looks now.
