The Garage Cleaning Saga: A Behind-the-Scenes Look at the Creator's Day
The creator of this video spent 90% of their day cleaning the garage, an endeavor that left them unable to showcase their handiwork. Despite their best efforts, they confessed that the clean garage now looks like its old self once again. This anecdote sets the tone for a day filled with other projects and activities.
With the giveaway car ready to go, the creator couldn't wait to see it in action. Formula Drift was also on the agenda, with qualifying and finals events providing ample entertainment for the creator. As they watched the competition unfold, they decided to get started on their own project – a bumper cut. The goal was to create a unique look that would give their car an aggressive stance.
The process of creating a bumper cut proved to be a learning experience for the creator. They referenced Matt "Jinja" Jenkins' car as inspiration, but ultimately opted for a different design. After some trial and error, they finally achieved the desired result – a sleek and streamlined look that would elevate their vehicle's appearance.
Meanwhile, preparations were underway for the giveaway winner's arrival. The creator had already purchased a bucket seat with spacers to ensure proper fitment in the Elise's back seats. However, upon re-examining the installation process, they realized that they needed additional spacers due to the seats' unique design. This minor setback didn't deter them from continuing their projects.
A time-lapse video showcased the creator's journey as they drove to pick up the giveaway winner, Michael. Initially, the plan was to play a silent game during the entire drive, with the creator testing Michael's reaction. However, this idea quickly backfired when the silence stretched on for 30 minutes without a single word being spoken. The two eventually broke the ice and started chatting, setting the stage for a fun-filled day ahead.
The next day would bring more excitement as the creator planned to introduce Michael to their car collection. With the help of Nicole's Mustang, they aimed to provide an immersive drifting experience. For Michael, this marked his first foray into donuts and drifting – an experience he was eager to embark on.
As the creator wrapped up their video, they expressed gratitude to their audience for watching. They acknowledged that while some aspects of the day didn't quite go as planned, it had been a successful overall experience. The creator looked forward to documenting their adventures without constantly filming themselves, allowing viewers to see what was happening in real-time.
Finally, the creator bid farewell to their audience, thanking them for their support and enthusiasm.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's up guys I have to tell you you're probably not gonna believe me but the reason why I didn't have the video yesterday I spent like 90% of the day just cleaning the garage and you're not gonna believe me because I can't even show you the clean garage because it's already looking like this again I guess it's a little bit better than it was before on top of that I've been giving the giveaway car ready since the winners actually flying in tonight and as well Formula Drift is going on so I've been watching qualifying and finals right now I'm basically starting the video in between top 32 in top 16 I was actually just playing around the giveaway car trying to get some of the body panels to line up a little bit better had a little bit of a weird gap here but I just got everything bolted back together nice tight with new bolts trying to make it look nice still gonna wash it but that's gonna come later right now what I want to do is a bumper cut so if you've seen Matt the jinja's car I'll put a picture on the screen right now he has his bumper cut out where you can see his bash bar but it still doesn't look funny cuz with the Z's it has like the headlights hanging down now this bumper I can't do the same thing as him since it's already in half so I'm gonna try doing a bumper cut a little bit higher up just to basically save this one piece mount it to the car and see how it looks bumpers pretty much garbage so I figure I might as well try something with it a couple rough spots I can clean up with a razor blade but for the most part other than right here I could probably shoot that down a little bit looks pretty smooth other than my crappy cutting Java actually think it looks pretty cool kind of gives the car a little bit of a more aggressive like longer hood look and I kind of like the fact that we don't have the bumper things over here to break I would just probably unbolt these and it would make it look really really nice that came out way better than I thought I'll probably I don't know if I'm better off just leaving it or if I want to kind of cut this off a little bit more it's hard to tell on video but it's definitely could be a little bit better cut job I probably paint all the brackets in there gloss black as well and it make it look really really really nice formula just actually about to be back on so in the meantime what I'm gonna do is start clearing out the just crap that I have laying around in this car because I'm gonna put the other sparkle in now that I got to see rail I've also got harnesses but I'm waiting for the correct eye bolts for the lot belt I wanted something to do while watching Formula Drift because I like to do things with my hands so I pulled off the door handle is just too 10 mils you just kind of have to like pop the trim off and then I'm able to take this trim off which is looking kind of beat up more so on the driver side but I'm gonna see if I can wrap this with some gold vinyl what look pretty cool this gold vinyl isn't wrap vinyl and if you can tell it's very difficult because it's not porous it's in those little like breather holes so it gets all these little bubbles so I'm gonna just wrap it black for the time being until I can get some cold wrap funnel the vinyl actually cooperates really well with heat so I was able to get a nice sear on this corner it's thundering out now if you can't hear that oh did the other guy one are you sad Nicole likes Turk I've definitely mentioned in videos before that I haven't been like the biggest F D fan ever but over the past year I've met a lot of the drivers in FD so it was much more enjoyable watching knowing that like I don't know it's the same way that I was with BMX when you actually know the faces and like the personalities behind the cars it makes it much more exciting to watch and I understand drifting much more than I used to yeah yeah Nicole actually really enjoyed watching it which is pretty cool it's like that was seeing like Wayne come back and because I've told you guys before he's been like my favorite person in FD obviously he wasn't last year but I've always like looked up to how stylistic and like detail-oriented his builds are hence kind of why my f 13 is like the way that it is by the way Swiss tracks the only reason I'm able to walk in this garage with socks because there is so much stuff underneath these it's pretty gross but we clean it every once in a while good ol seeps again except this time we're not gonna care if the rails work since it's the passenger seat and they don't need to have the privilege of being able to move back and forth so we're just can send it this car is coming together first my stupid self didn't remember that last time when I installed these I had to put spacers in the back because these seats like kind of get wider towards the front so that is able to get a little bit straighter so if I can Elise line it up with the bolt holes again don't care if the sliders work just trying to get them in there my mind is blown right now how is it so far right um I don't get it if I was picking you up from the airport and like I was late what would your first prediction be as to why I was late if you guess installing a bucket seat because seat rails suck and are literally the worst thing on the planet Earth you would guess correct this C is not installed I am probably never gonna finish the seat if you wanted to ride along in the Black Sea well I Got News for You I'm sorry no C allowed because I I'm gonna be late I already like look at me I'm a great person great first impressions the thing we got the highway machine shall be you're a good girl yes you are Nicole what's going through your head right now who's nervous me you the giveaway winner probably us Thanks yeah to be honest the point is I probably won't film anything with him tonight I'll probably just like kind of I don't know he's probably hungry so probably go out to eat before we bring him to his hotel and then we'll like get to know each other better and then tomorrow it'll be way less awkward when we vlog okay so all right cute time-lapse driving to go pick up giveaway winner it pulls a little bit mad at me because when we picked up Michael from the airport Michaels the namely giveaway winner I thought it would be funny to like play the silent game so on the whole Drive I just like didn't say anything to see if he would say something and it just got really awkward because we went like 30 minutes with dead silence he's awesome we talked yeah yeah that was a joke anyway we hung out and talked and got to know him a little bit more I'm so excited he sounds so excited to see the through the DZ so tomorrow we're gonna go pick him up with a Z Nicole's car and then we're gonna go spin some laps and he has no exposure to drifting has never even done Donuts so that's gonna be really fun but Forza sounds like he understands the concept more than yeah you yeah okay all right guys so thank you for watching I feel like well we definitely got like I have cleaned my garage and put like three bolts in a bucket see I got the bumper cut done so that's cool but yeah I definitely blew it on this video shout-out to watching FD and shout out to like half cleaning the garage tomorrow is gonna be awesome though it's gonna be a lot of fun I'm not gonna go too crazy with filming but I'm gonna document stuff I just like I don't I wouldn't want someone to be showing a camera in my face the whole time so we'll just kind of like gauge you know whatever happened in whatever's working right and just have a good time mm-hmm yeah it's gonna be fun Nicole's took to drive Gabby hopefully she cooperates fingers crossed and Jeffrey's coming my brother yep Nicole's brothers coming he's gonna actually drift the Mustang on the oval yeah cool who's over here that's not actually happening jeff has a dart he's gonna drift that a dart
