Wrecked. Rebuilt. Ripped. 2JZ S14 Looks SO GOOD!

Watch this episode right now because it's my best day ever. No cap.

In today’s video, we take my wrecked S14 from fiberglass disaster to full paint refresh in just a few days – all to make it to the Down to Earth Ascend Festival Drift Skills Battle. After a crash at the last drift event, I had to fix the front bumper, hood, and fenders using some DIY fiberglass repair and body filler techniques.

With a tight deadline and help from the homies, we barely got it in the booth in time. Then it was time to hit the track.

We brought the full Track Pack – the F350, trailer, and giveaway E36 drift car – and the vibes were unmatched.

🔧 Parts & Tools That Saved the S14 (Barely):
Fiberglass Repair Resin – This stuff held together years of drift damage and bad decisions.

Body Filler / Icing – Smoothed out all the sins… or at least hid them well enough for paint.

2K Primer Sealer – Because we didn’t have time to block it for 3 days. Seals it, sticks, shoots.

AeroCatch Hood Latches – If you don’t want your hood to fly off at 90 in a drift entry… use these.
