In a daring move reminiscent of a high-stakes heist, B is for Build's Chris embarked on a thrilling SEMA project involving a severely damaged supercar transformed into a cyberpunk masterpiece. The team's attention to detail was nothing short of extraordinary, from the intricate rear diffuser to the tactical lighting on the spoiler. The cyberpunk theme demanded a level of customization that pushed the boundaries of automotive design, captivating onlookers at the show with its innovative approach.
Despite facing setbacks like a malfunctioning fin light, the SEMA build was a resounding success, showcasing the team's commitment to pushing the limits of creativity. Partnering with airlift performance added a layer of complexity to the project, requiring meticulous planning months in advance. The decision to stick with the original motor instead of a Tesla chassis underscored Chris's dedication to preserving the car's essence while infusing it with a futuristic twist.
As the project unfolded, Chris found himself grappling with the harsh realities of building under tight deadlines and the toll it took on his team's well-being. Striking a balance between innovation and practicality became a central theme, emphasizing the importance of sustainable work practices in the automotive industry. Looking ahead, the plan to revert the car back to a modified Mercy logo signals a new chapter in the journey of this remarkable SEMA build, one that promises to captivate audiences once again with its unique blend of tradition and innovation.
