Nice Progress Man
got more work done yesterday and today on my filler panel. Got the patch fited in then welded up ground it down and started with filler. After all the filler was done decided to take care of some more little dents and did more filler. Then after 4 coats of primer i found out i used the wrong primer it never dryed and set up DAMN:worry::mad: but it was all good fixed it. Got some more of the right primer on and then sanded it out now i got a new fender again and that to shoot with color. Here are some pics of the work
I did the same thing with mine, car looks good so far.
You might have issues with that hatch not latching when you close it. I do sometimes, I think it just needs a spring.
thanks for the tip ill look in to it when i take out the lock it self
well our painter hasnt had time to shoot any color on my parts. He did say that tomorrow should be a better day he has less going on so lets hope.:naughty:
Got it painted today now just gotta let it dry a bit wet sand buff it out and fit to the car. Here are the parts all sprayed up
rear with no key hole
:P:P:P:P:P:P
wet sand tomorrow and then put them on and see if they match. Did match to my old fender but we’ll see.
Could you please tell me about your fenders?
Where did you get them?
Are they aftermarket or OEM?
If Aftermarket, what brand?
I got hit last week and now I need a new driver side fender, headlight and hood.
Also, what size nut is under the bolts on the front part of the fender?
Please help me make my car look good again.
The fender is from Certi fit the bolts under should be a 10mm if i remember right they’re kind of a bitch to get at there a weird plastic thing in the way for a couple of them
Did you order it directly from their warehouse?
No i got it from one of my coworkers friends they are like $50 new i think
very nice work on the filler panel.
I have pics of it on now but my puter isnt working right wont read the card or the camera gay a$$ Emachine
:lol:
ive heard of fittment issues with certifit parts. did you have any?
a little but it wasnt that bad no after market is gonna fit like factory anyway
I just had a quick question… I saw you got DC forks… Did you install them? What was the point of changing them out? Does it drop the car lower or something?
