Making the Fiberglass Widebody! Sky-gea Build: Part 23

Back to work on the Stagea after a fun break with the Mx5. In this video we finish off the first side of the widebody by prepping the moulds, laying the fiberglass for the new fenders, then trimming and fitting them to the car to wrap up the first side of this widebody.

Enjoy the video.
