I guess the spoilers are right in the title. I got a random idea to roll my fenders after they kept hitting my tires during my last few practice sessions. I changed the offset on the rear down to 6, then back out to 9, but I still was not a fan of the look. So, I noticed how close in size the wheel opening was to an aluminum can. With that in mind, I grabbed one out of the recycle bin, snatched my kitchen torch for a little expedited heat exchange and then proceeded to attempt this for the first time on my drift missile.
Thankfully, it worked out exactly as I had hoped, melting just enough to be effective with no mess or issues. You can likely do the same thing with a heat gun and will probably greatly reduce the risk of something going wrong. I have one but wanted to try it with the torch so I could get it done and get on my way to the track. Watch as I roll both fenders in just a few minutes with only the shell, the can, the torch, and these two hands.
*Disclaimer: Please use extreme caution if you are using a kitchen torch, or any type of open flame element. If you are under 18, live in your parents' house, or do not feel confident doing this yourself; please ask someone for help. Using a heat gun will greatly reduce your risk of serious fire or injury.
This is the process I used, and you may not experience the same results. I cannot be held liable if you attempt this and ruin your shell, chassis, or burn down your home. Please take all necessary precautions, have your local volunteer fire department on standby, ...or maybe just some water in a cup. 🤣🤣🤣
Good luck, and as always...thanks for watching!!

I think it’d be cool if you make a tutorial on the techniques you used for this whole build, as I am going to attempt a drift missile kind of build and want to go for realism and give it the same look as your car does

Hi, sounds like you would enjoy my video series on the creation of this drift missile. This body was originally chewed up by my Rottweiler before I could paint it, so it is called Project Dojah, after my dog. The Silvia Resurrection series showing this build from beginning to end can be found here: Part 1: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-H9_0PORO9Uc.html Part 2: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sa80VbbA0sk.html Part 3: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jUipdrLtTjg.html Part 4: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TuAogtBqv0s.html Part 5: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-z94KhhxBfCM.html Part 6: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LWQ1QbXHEMU.html Part 7: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-a6dVJ2uBoX0.html Part 8: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ybNZLSOYiVY.html Part 9: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oyGs3JNwLZM.html Videos of the drift missile in action? Gotcha covered. Watch here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EN4Me7q_uqA.html Hope that helps! Let me know when you finish your missile build, would love to see it. Thanks for watching!

Great idea! I'll definitely be trying this, as a mill or two clearance would really help!

@shawn_of_the_shred Год назад

Awesome! Let me know how it goes. I managed to get about 3mm extra clearance, which was perfect to lower my offset since it is in 3mm increments.

Cool vid bro, I wide bodied my mustang this would have been a quick fix👍 first one I've watched its hard work to make it as a RC channel but you've got a new sub here bro 👍👍👍

@shawn_of_the_shred Год назад

Thanks man, greatly appreciate it. You can always try it on the next one! Glad you like the vid, happy sliding!

What you use to add rust 9n the holes

@shawn_of_the_shred 5 месяцев назад

Hi @frankiesrcs8116, thanks for watching. Initially, I used a combination of brown and gold paint markers on the outside, which allowed me to adjust the amount and pattern if I wasn't happy with the look, as it can be cleaned away with rubbing alcohol. However, after seeing how it turned out, I want to add some texture to it. I picked up some iron ore powder and a slow drying glue (Elmer's), which is also peelable if I didn't like it. I lightly put some glue around the holes, let it drip slightly (or drag it where you want with a coffee stirrer) and then lightly sprinkle the iron ore powder into the glue. Once I had finished that process, I sprayed it with a rust activator and let it sit overnight. Voila, real rust the next morning. I have a video in the works to show this process, look for it soon!
