Making the GTR conversion fenders! Sta-GTR build: Part 3
In this episode we weld together the first of the conversion fenders for the GTR Stagea build.
These metal fenders will be covered in body filler and used as plugs to make a set of fiberglass moulds. Then the metal fenders will be discarded and new ones will be made out of fiberglass.
