In case anyone's interested.....
That strip is low gauge and is designed to be "formed" into shape...then sealed with silicone... http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...0/DSC_9771.jpg before the Heavy duty foam layer is affixed, which covers all of this. http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...0/DSC_9772.jpg Cheers, Warren |
Wazza what you guys have done there is very neat and very similar to what I have done on some of my cars in the past. Its a bit of a prick of a job and also hard to spend the time to get looking nice. Your efforts look much better than mine!
Reason I posted is I viewed a product recently that was being used on a chair I have from Switzerland that is exactly the same as what you've used, super dense and adhesive BUT its applied using a heat gun (commercial hairdryer in effect) and it moulds itself to the shape of the thing your applying it to. In my case it was a $10k chair BUT I think it'd be awesome for underbody wheel arches. What's also good is if any of it comes away OR you miss a bit you just reapply the heat gun blower, shape it with your hand and it re-sticks. It works in a commercial seating application as people aren't going to buy a chair for $10k if it unmolds itself! I've asked my guys OS if they can source me a few square metres and send it over and I'm going to see how it goes on the Dato. If I get some and it works I'll let you know.

Ok, advanced foam chair pic gone.
|
U dills. Some of what I do involves dealing with os manufacturing with regards to commercial seating amongst other things from lots of euro countries as well as Asia so I get to see a lot of technology and product that is still 5-10 years away from oz....if it even makes it here.
I don't personally own a 10k chair but I do sit in them fairly often as part of what I do. 750hp the Dato pic likeness is profound. Gold. Cheers fellas. |
Geezuz, away for 12 hours and the special rocker chair has gone ( tell me nobody goggled monkey rocker!) and we are back to norm.
Anyway, Guye, great build, more pics and updates... Of anything... It does not matter. |
Craig, that dato is gold, up spec with left hand mirror, mismatch wheels, serious rake, high mount rego sticker, rusted lower sills, thin hi-Po wipers, front number plate delete. and rear mud flap addition to protect rear quarter .... That is a yellow bullet nationals contender right there, just add LS?.
|
No no, please go ahead. Talk about anything you like! Don't mind me!
:D Where's that pic? - put it back Mike! I missed it! |
Meanwhile, back at the ranch.....
I did it. I made a car! First start, seriously. Can't believe it started first go, once my mate Pete fixed the ECU. |
Well done mate love the grin on your face. Great work can't wait to see it the flesh.
