I scraped my bumper bar at the front on the left. Its under neath on the corner... the scratch is about 15 cms long and about 7 cms wide... my car is silver Im thinking of just patching it up myself with a touch up paint I got at home from Nissan. Any thoughts? I knwo the bumper bar is plastic and the paint aint a bigie on it.

Well it aint that exposed really... but like with any new scratch "my car is ruined" feeling is shitty.

i did a bodge up job on my line. cut some rust out and bogged up a scratch/dent and just painted it with paint i got mixed at autobarn. can't even tell it was done. just a day or 2 after it is painted get a buffing pad for the drill, some cut and polish and it will look fine.

      Quick Lifts? Anybody got one?

      By PranK · Posted

      I spent the entire of the long weekend going through my garage and I'm now, after 3.5yrs in this house, able to fit a car in. The garage is quite long and the back half has a high enough ceiling for a 2 post lift but it's going to just take too much space and I don't think I'd be able to get around the car if it was in the air. So, in comes the quick lift. It looks perfect. High enough to do most things, I reckon even getting a gearbox out would be doable.  Does anybody here have one? They're fairly cheap (~$3k) considering...  https://www.dtmtrading.com.au/product/quick-lift-portable-vehicle-hoist-3500-kg-worksafe-approved/ I'm also a bit of a non risk taker so I'd probably still use stands when under!

      Well now we all see it! I did the same. Then cut it out. Then melted half of it. Then discarded it entirely. So... you're in good company.

      I just replaced the god awful, sagging, crunchy bonnet insulation. It's something nobody but I see but it's been at me for a while.

      yeah the south island is stunning, the wifes family is from the west coast down there so we were down there for christmas.   a high 10 would be a stretch but hilarious if it happened. fourth gear is its party gear, i don't have traction to throw more at it at lower speeds. I've found passengers don't think its that fast, i think it's because it has a digital dash so they can't see the needle move so they have no sense of speed

      You have (externally anyway) a lot of patience!  At the very least your patience has rewarded you financially even if you decided you were over it!! I only just read your first experience of seeing the car, that would have been amazing!  Well documented too! It must be exciting knowing there's only 10 months left until you can get it on a boat and on it's way!!!???
