Wait wait wait your car still has the stock dash and not a carbon fiber dash? Man you slacking.

That is just my practice car. It only has a carbon fibre roof, c.f front g.v lip, and c.f wing.

i would definitely like to see a cf dash. i would like to make a dash and a top when i get the cash.

Here is my progress on the new fastback i am making. The side windows are flush with the door windows, and i will put the rear window in next. Then i can fill the 5mm to bring it to the finish level ready for sanding.

If you want...

I have troweled on the first layer of plaster, and in the 2nd pic you can see the second layer is done.

This is all kinds of bad ***. It has been a while since I checked the progress. Very nice!

3rd coat, 1st topcoat. I willdo the final coat over this when it dries enough and do the final rough sand. Then check all dimensions again. If all good, i can start with the hi-fill/primer coats.

There is great potential here, can we see more side shots and/or rear 3/4 shots?

There is not much room to get good pics in the garage.

Aah nuts. I really like the lines of this top, they look much more natural and doesn't make the car look as if it had a tumor on the back where the glass is.

I uploaded a walk around video of the fastback. The last coat of filler has just been applied. So i will sand that tonight, and hopefuly it will be ready for the primer/hifill.

Looks great! Any thoughts on the boot lid and opening closing capabilities..?

I am in Sydney in September, I can pick my one up then....

I have made the bottom edge of the back window the shut line for the boot/trunk. For now I am happy to mould the fastback outer with flanges, and then look at doing all the inner/undercut areas for the next stage. As I have to have the car ready for a track day next weekend.

Nice lines, I like the looks of your fastback design better than Autokenxion's. This mold might generate some sales potential!

Hot damn that looks good.

I did some checking, and the left rear corner was a bit lower, and where the fastback part meets the roof part had too sharp of a curve. So it has had a lot more filling and sanding. It is very close now. It should be ready for primer tonight.
