And all this with your own hands! Part one. - Toyota Camry, 3.0L, 1997
After reading the blog
Today I started to bridle. I bought myself a plastic wrap of 2 meters and a spray of construction foam, 750 ml. On it, by the way, it is written that "foam yield at + 20C is about 65 liters." So look how many "65 liters" are there. Okay, first experience, so everything is lumpy, as they say.
Mistakes I made:
1) I started fighting in a hot car, stood in the sun. You cannot do this categorically, because the foam begins to swell and inside, in general, a bundle turned out.
Here is such a great bloated pie!
2) Did not calculate the amount of foam. Let's figure out how much will be needed. I think 2 cans of 750 will be enough, although I thought that even 60 liters for my eyes would be enough.
3) I did not hold the can upside down, although I had to. Maybe because of this, I only got 5 liters there?
And this is what came out of that formless something.
Tomorrow I'll go buy more foam, PVA glue, fiberglass, polyester resin and rough sandpaper, 400 grain.
Price tag: 120 ₽
I will do it! Somehow, but I'll try to make it like a factory one, if there was such a thing at all))
And what does it show me that I did not place pictures in the post ?! Or did you really not arrange?
Well, he says in the salon in 2008 for 15,000 he personally saw! and for 10,000 you can find, they say.
I don’t know, I have not seen such prices! We can be in California or Florida, where cars are cheaper!
Aaaa ... a friend said right now, there you have a Camri40, 2008 for $ 10,000 you can find, right?
Yes, today the windshield wipers))
Yes, the result is bullshit, I just don't have such a problem right now))
Well, think about it.)
By the way, why is it expensive to paint in the USA?
Well, what the result will be from such painting, ha ha ha! have you ever spray painted?
Yes? Well, the materials are finally garbage ... I've just not bought epoxy yet, I forgot. Tomorrow I'll probably go, if there is time.
And you can paint from a spray can! Really!

Will be, everything will be))
So far, everything is going well) I
am finishing the form, I think the other day I will post the second part of the construction))
Do you want to make your own spoiler too?))
can. just how can I find fiberglass and all that? besides, it will be necessary to paint later and here it is not cheap!

I thought to take children's plasticine ... :-) and mold the shape. We all sculpted different figures from plasticine in childhood ... I think you can make the shape perfect ... well, then how, cough, you suggested, cover with fiberglass ... :-)
Roma, why are you) I'm less years old than you, you can't, but I need you!)
And about the visor, look at other options. You can take construction foam or whatever, which is solid and already make a form from it. Then cover with fiberglass, prime and paint! Even, I think this is a better option!
oh you flatter me ... my hands are not that crooked ... they are probably even more crooked a hundred times yours :-) but we will try ... :-)
eh ... sorry ... but I'm looking at your example, I was on fire to stir up, read the podobnae ... :-)
And then it turned out garbage, then I tried again and again it turned out garbage, I did not go to bed, and then there was no time to redo it, and then they sold the car ...
