This was my first attempt at fiberglass and it took 4 months to complete.

looks good, id personally loose the blue lights around the door panels. Lighting stuff up is fun, im all for it but they dont look right in that spot. It almost seems like its being used to cover up the gap between the new work and the stock panel.....

Im also not really into the "crowded" look that the doors have but i can appreciate the time you spent on the fiberglass. If thats really your first 'glass job then you have nothing but good things in your future because you do have some skills. [Smile]

keep up the good work, and you will see stuff improve. awesome first job.

criticism? just a little bit of waves on the doors, but dont let that get you down, its your first job and its an awesome first job at that.

There was fiberglass in the pics?? Just kidding. It is looking good at your first try. Doors are tough to get right. They tend to take a lot of time. Next time, try changing the way you do you base and see if that dosn't help out. Good work all around though.

They usually accept a USB or 9 pin serial connection that you can use a small terminal emulation program to talk to it thru windows with. Or they come with those goofy hand held controlers.

I think it's definitely good work, especially considering it's your first glass job. I second changing the base, and seeing the waves. Please don't let it hold you back though, you are well on your way.

Sanding blocks are so underrated it's ridiculous...... anyways PM me if you'd like some pointers.


Other than that............the girl on the LEFT [Eek!]

:OOppps.... does anyone have a towel:

i agree. other than the rope lights its preaty nice.
only way to get beter is to keep trying.
very good start.
only thing i dont like about fiberglass is that sanding time.
