In this riveting episode of B is for Build, the team takes on the Herculean task of resurrecting a Lamborghini Mercio that met a rather unfortunate fate on the road. After being snagged at an auction for a steal, the car becomes the centerpiece of a grand project aimed at showcasing it at the prestigious SEMA car show. The crew's ingenuity shines as they employ 3D printing wizardry to craft a bespoke body kit for the battered supercar, pushing the boundaries of automotive customization.

However, their journey is fraught with challenges, particularly when it comes to creating molds for the intricate body kit pieces. The team encounters issues with flanges, leading them to resort to unconventional methods involving Italian clay and meticulous waxing to ensure the molds' integrity. Amidst the chaos, they embark on a daring mission to fabricate a missing rear quarter panel using steel and an English wheel, injecting a dose of 'cyber-punky' flair by intentionally embracing the car's battle scars and imperfections.

As the saga unfolds, the team faces a dramatic setback when their trusty vacuum pump goes up in smoke, quite literally. Despite the mishap, they emerge victorious, unveiling flawlessly crafted fiberglass body kit pieces that exude a sense of raw, unrefined beauty. Through perseverance, creativity, and a touch of madness, B is for Build transforms a wrecked Lamborghini into a work of art, embodying the spirit of automotive innovation and daring craftsmanship.
