Think you'll find that's just the plug from which they make the mould to produce the real thing

Look onwards to see the outcome! BEAUTIFUL.

Cant wait to see the hawkeye versions, could persude my mum to have one on hers :p

that is one skillfull dude! wish i were that good at wood-work

Its like his hand was made of sandpaper, gotta say that looks the biz.

Looks very good work there

I used to work in a place that made bumpers for trucks and coach`s, damn the moulds are heavy

surely the mdf is a template for the real fibre glass shell, good job btw

That is pretty amazing, wish I could be assed to do wood work like that

Its like his hand was made of sandpaper

sorry about the size, it was the only pic i could find

that work is amazing ivew just looked through the whole thread and his work is amazing!

he has done pretty well there.I'm a carpenter and id give him a big pat on the back and what a wicked outcome too

top work there, making that mould from wood then to a propper bumper, well good.....not a bad outcome too

good work as I'm a chippie too but mdf blows when wet...... i would have used ply myself

its not mdf anyways it 5 layer plyboard.there aint alot of mdf there.just ply and some pine shoudnt blow.theres a couple bit of thin sheet mdf there but its been fibregallsed and sprayed so should be fine...looks awesome in my opinion

well these cars were made with a fibreglass bodyshell and a plywood chassis

bet thats light as fuck ^^

Yeah it's also shit...wood whilst good for making bumper moulds is not suitable for a car chassis lol

try telling morgan, yet another crazy british sportscar manufacturer who like making their chasis from wood!

That's just because they are traditionalists...you wouldn't see them making a new model out of wood...surely?

Aero 8 had no structural wood in it.

That does look really good
