Memories: Our first MFX sponsor car

The build of one of our first sponsor cars =^-^=

I'll also throw in some plug pictures of this bar in plug form - this was our own design, built from scratch and then adapted to other cars.. it was originally built on the R33 Skyline, then the second car it was developed for was the 180SX.
Here we took prettymuch the bottom half of the 33 bar, and chopped/modded/blended it with the top of a 180SX bar .. it takes longer than it sounds.. lol. Then we smoothed prepped and moulded, etc, the usual process..

So we got the car in and it was full kit all round - front bar, widebody front gaurds, sideskirts, widebody rear gaurds, and rear bar. [headlight cover too maybe at one point?] Pulled all the panels off and grinded out the rear gaurds and tacked for pumping.

Trial fitting of all panels then started prepping for paint

Pretty sure this was Mazda3 yellow? Or maybe Madza6. Some Mazda paint anyways lol.

Upon doing a random search on my old usernames i found an old blog of mine form when i used to fibreglass, this is a post from there, back in 2010! Wow so long ago, feels like yesterday :)

tagging @mfxae86, we built this car together [body wise], and it was the first of so so many!

Ah, those were the days =^_^=
