Thanks, My uncle from London visited the blue house this past summer and was blown away by how big just the basement was.

Not so much an update on the body work on car but It was a neat exercise which some of you may enjoy. Winter is coming and this ill allow me to do work on the car while at my computer (and 3d printer but more on that later.

My work recently got an Artec Leo scanner to help with onsite measure-ups. I was able to take it home to "practice" with over the weekend. Since the car has been in a bodyshop environment for the past year or so it was covered in dust. Perfect for scanning.





The tape over the headlights and placed over the fiberglass are just to give the scanner reference points.

After 20 min or so of scanning, this is the raw data from the scanner.



I spent a little time cleaning and aligning the scans in artec studio.





I intend on using this to make and print a cooling panel as well as side skirt extensions. I hate how the front lip sits 3 inches or so lower than the sideskirts but cant justify shipping them from Australia.

The impul grill fouls on the old aluminum cooling panel I made and many of the off the shelf parts do not fit GTST hood catch. Plus making things is fun.

Speaking of, made my own GTR hood.





I am going to start on the cooling panel first and will post progress as it uh ... progresses.

Awesome!

How did you find the scanner to work with? Any tracking issues?

I have the Artec's budget arch-nemesis (Creality Scan Lizard), Have used it a few times to make reference scans from my S13, but not too much yet as it very quickly showed the age of my laptop

Thanks!

It helped a lot that the car was covered is bodyshop dust. I did put the yellow tape down with sharpie squiggles to help in tracking. It turned out pretty decent for a 30 min scan. Admittedly I am still learning what works and what doesn't.

My computer is putting in work too! I will need to upgrade my home PC soon I think.
