[QUOTE="Th3pWn3r, post: 4514877, member: 576149"] Hey guys, this is my custom kick pod build log with LOTS of pictures. Enjoy! This was a pain in the azz by the way with the contours in the vehicle which is a 1989 CRX Si with B16A swap and full bolt ons. [IMG]http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn4/th3pwn3r/Pod%20Build/DriversDoor.jpg[/IMG] Here we have the driver's side door and once closed we pretty much have no room for any decent setup here. [IMG]http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn4/th3pwn3r/Pod%20Build/StockKick.jpg[/IMG] Here we have our driver's side kick which will have to be where we place our pods. [IMG]http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn4/th3pwn3r/Pod%20Build/RightSideKick.jpg[/IMG] Passenger side kick. [IMG]http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn4/th3pwn3r/Pod%20Build/DriverMask1.jpg[/IMG] This is the first step to making custom kick pods after you have the vision in your mind. You have to mask off the area where you're going to create mold. I recommend that you mask off a large area so you don't get resin all over your carpet and ruin your interior. I used foil and tape to prevent any leak-through. [IMG]http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn4/th3pwn3r/Pod%20Build/PassengerMask1.jpg[/IMG] Passenger side masked off. [IMG]http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn4/th3pwn3r/Pod%20Build/DriverMask3.jpg[/IMG] Driver's side fully masked. Note the clutch pedal clearance, not much. [IMG]http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn4/th3pwn3r/Pod%20Build/PassengerMask2.jpg[/IMG] Passenger side fully masked. After finishing the masking you have to draw out the shape of your pods as best as possible. [IMG]http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn4/th3pwn3r/Pod%20Build/DriverMatLaidout.jpg[/IMG] Here you can see where I laid out my fiberglass cloth and traced through my old shape drawn on the masking.
