    That came out great!! I have a compressor and spray gun but prefer the rattle can mixed from my local paint shop..under $50 bucks and amazing DIY achievement. Like u said its a daily.. I call any blemishes "beauty marks".. gives the car character 👍🏽

      Eventually I will be buying a junker to rebuild and when that happens I will def Need to get a compressor setup running but for individual parts the cans do work just fine. Beauty marks haha, I like that!

    Love your videos man. Car is coming along nicely too! I had a question though... I just got my Krotov duckbill spoiler in yesterday and dropped it off at my local paint guy today. Should be ready mid-week and I need to find the best double sided tape to use to make sure it stays on. What tape did you use on yours? I'm leaning towards 3M VHB 5952 so far... Thanks in advance

    • @Foxcraze
      @Foxcraze  4 года назад +1

      Nice add me on Instagram so I can see the end result, _foxcraze! Anyway as for the VHB yes that tape will be great to use, that is what I plan to use for the wide body panels. I used the 3m 1” wide automotive tape from autozone for my duckbill and it’s not moved an inch. But I would have used the VHB if I knew the difference at the time!!

      It will fit, the top of the trunk is same shape in all years. The difference is in the tail light buckets and the delete of the lower trim panel under license plate.

      It could have warped in shipment. Heating the corners and lips then applying pressure till it cools will reshape the abs to your trunks contours!

    Hey man, I know this is an old video and I have yet to catch up, but I was wondering, would the front cameras from the oem grille work with this blitz bumper? I’m not sure if it’s as simply as swapping the old grille into the new bumper, or if modifications would have to be done.

    • @Foxcraze
      @Foxcraze  2 года назад +1

      The grille is mounted to the stock bumper with hardware and would transition to a blitz bumper easily.

    Where do you get the paint and how do you make sure it’s the same color?

    • @Foxcraze
      @Foxcraze  2 года назад +1

      The paint can be purchased online or at a paint store where paint mixing for automotive paint is done. Mine was bought at an advanced auto parts that had a paint mixing section. You give them the color code of the vehicle and they will mix it to match based on that code. The newer the car the better that match will be due to sun fade and all that affecting the original color.

    • @Foxcraze
      @Foxcraze  8 месяцев назад

      So the clear needs to be 2k not 1k and have the hardener included. 1K clear doesn’t harden like automotive grade clear does and it will be prone to damage easier. If the lid has a red plug on top of it then you are good to go.

      Mine took about 4-5 months. Everything is delayed when it’s coming from over seas currently. I’m sure the waiting sucks but it will come. They have a good response time when being messaged on Instagram. Hit them up on there and enquire as to what the status is; if you haven’t already.

      You may be better off than I am at doing this and knock it out quickly. My issue isn’t nothing with the kit because it fits wonderfully. What I don’t want to do is use rivets or screws but I also didn’t want to permanently bond it to the car in the event of a collision, the likely hood of the kit being repairable is greatly increased. That said the kit doesn’t sit flush enough in all areas to be bonded with tape so I’m still working a solution.

      The Krotov wing is abs plastic. If you’re seeing a fiberglass version on eBay then it’s a mold of the original and will prob not fit well.
