Budget Lotus Evora Pt 29 – Door Repairs And Paint Prep

1. just a reminder for others always dewax and grease the body b4 sanding lol

2. hello Chris I have been enjoying your videos for a while but I've been looking back on some of the old vids and found this build which I just wanted to say I'm really enjoying well done.

   I've got a build going on an E30 M3, I hope you might check it out.

3. It's called a virtual shot, the s6 had it..
   or you could just take a video..
   now being able to "photo-shop" a 360 shot on my phone to try aftermarket parts would be cool asf..

4. About that damage to the door, do you mean to bondoglass it?

5. The reason your sandpapaer is clogging up is because you're using a grit too fine for body filler. Once the body filler is dried, you need to start with at least 120 grit and then move up. 320 grit is more of a finishing grade before primer. Just a heads up before your next project!

6. You should do a ford gt rear end that would be wild

7. You should be able to connect the power sander with the shop vac. If it doesn't fit nicely just tape it with masking tape 🙂

8. Why single stage?

9. the raw denim life…

10. this might be challenging to film but it would be awesome to see you do a clutch upgrade on the brz

11. holy shit you can now like comments on Mobile yayyyy.

12. Micro-glob that sounds like precision to me! LOL! Did you ever get a roof or rear bumper?

13. I have been so into this build from the very start but I have to admit that to me it just feels tainted now after the whole Lotus debacle. It feels like… it went from being the peoples build, to being Lotus' build that they are letting us do as long as we keep our head down and our mouth shut. I honestly didn't even get into the episode cause the whole time I couldn't stop thinking how they're watching every second of this now, waiting for you to talk shit even once so they can send Creedy to kick your door in and black bag you!

    We were so close to the finish line too… Le Sigh.

14. Fiberglass glaze=gel coat. That's the word you were looking for.

15. this guys dont no nothing about body work!!

16. Don't wrap it. It will be too much of a PITA for all of the extreme angles on this car.

17. a guide coat is also useful

18. We call them interface pads

19. first time coming across your videos,really enjoyed it. Congrats on doing something different.

20. I watch a lot of youtube content, ive been a sub since 2k. in my opinion you make about the best n most honest content. Still your channel deserves waaaayyy more views man just keep up the work!

21. $2600 for a real body shell. I bet there are people here who bought whole cars for that.

22. please remove the door seals, window sills and door handles. Nothing looks worse than over spray or a tape line where those peaces where once a car gets resprayed.

23. whit,black and gray camo vinyl wrap it

24. dont do fucking white.

25. Where did you buy the lotus from originally? I might try to fix up a wrecked car

26. I'm a huge fan of brushed wrap =)

27. why is this the last episode of this? wheres the rest of it lol? painting? reassembly?

28. you should use dolphin glaze it is better for small stuff
