My parents had some dents removed from their honda civic (BIG door dings) by Langley Motor bodies (at St Mary's) a few years ago. Fixed them up so couldnt see they were ever there without need for paint. Cost was about $300 for 2 dents from memory, but it would depend where they are and what interior trim needs to be removed to get to them.

Otherwise most panel shops should be able to do it, but with varying degrees of success i'm sure.

Adz: As long as the paint isn't damaged (ie. not scratched at all) they should be able to remove it without any need for bog etc. Go see some reputable panel beaters and they should do it.

I've had some quotes from Chips Away and they are no cheaper, the only difference is they come to you. I know I would rather my car go to a workshop where they have ALL the tools etc required.

chips away will fill in the dent then repaint so it won't be the cheapest option.

we use dent masters at work for these types of dents -- he is cheap but we get him at a lower price due to the volume of work

      Pillar gauges

      See, that button sounds like perfection Duncan! My eyes really don't like light shining at them from a dash when I'm driving. Being part red colourblind, I've found for most cars that I can change colours on, I set everything to red, so my eyes see the elast amount of colour! I miss normal gauges in cars

      bro, knowing the Japanese in  the 90's, i wouldn't be surprised if they shared components across their model lineup.

      Possible swap on R34 RB20DE NEO?

      By Kapr · Posted

      Maaaan so many "little" things  i rly hope my old RB20 would be "ok" and not too bad. I try to learn what and what not do i need. I look at crossmember at it looks different...even parts numbers are different. Wiring and all that i rly do not know...yeah someone mentioned the speedo thing. On that yoke clip. I rly do not know what can and cant be done "custom" so that is why iam asking to know and not be suprised 🙂  I know what it looks like

      Oh, there's also the gearbox crossmember which will probably be different between the small box and the big box, and the wiring loom will probably need to be modified, because the plugs for the switches etc, will probably be different. And I think the speedo on the small box R34s is from somwhere stupid, like the diff, possibly, so you'd need to work out what needs to be done about that (assuming it is different). I think the thing you need to realise is that the front end of that yoke is a large hollow tube with splines on the inside that mates with the splines on the box's output shaft. It is a dedicated thing - not available "aftermarket". They were made to suit that box, by the car's OEM.
