Plus it’s foam so it provides an extra safety factor because soft!

If it works, it ain’t stupid.

I’m pretty sure the future is with homemade 3D printer panels.

I’ve actually seen this trick before, for filling in a tiny rust hole in a rocker panel.

Ford already has a “3d printer” for creating custom stamped steel shapes.

I wonder how soon this will catch on for custom body panels for regular consumers?

Wow we should make a whole car out of this stuff. It’s the perfect material. Lightweight too!

a bit of light sanding and it’ll smooth right out!
