M35 Info

Plus there is reasonably good access in behind for panel beating dolleys. Should be fairly straight forward to pull it out even without access to the rear. They would just weld a tab on and pull it out with one of those panel beating pull hammers. Looks pretty easy to fix.

[ironpaw]

But the job will cost at least $500 right?

[wht510]

Yeah I would've said about that. I was going to say $600. Depends on who and how they do it, and whether you want the paint to match or 'match'

[ironpaw]

I wanna to match like a mofo...LOL

Guess I'll just pay the excess!

[zei20l]

dude pay cash

work out how much it will cost and if doing it through insurance and losing your no-claim bonus is cheaper in the long run. it might only be $500 now, but next year your premium might be $200 more when the job would have cost $600 in the first place.

being insurance they will bump up the price. pay cash and it will be cheaper

OK so I'll hit up some places for a cash price....

Any Melbournians know of reputable panel beaters who will do a decent job?

Can someone tell me how to turn on the driving lights that are in the aero front bar on the nm35. I've tried both sets of switches on the light stalk and the 2 way toggle under the dash on the right hand side but nothing turns them on.

Cheers

What about DT panel in Springvale?

[Sydsyd]

a lot of ppl i know go to DT panels since they're cheaper than most panel beaters, but u get what u pay for...

Ha ok they're crap...no worries I won't go there!

[Sydsyd]

don't get me wrong...some ppl who put their cars in autosalon go to DT panels for paint jobs and the result looks good enough to pass for autosalon entry...but beware that at times their work is not the best quality...

Does it look aftermarket? Mine was blank until i installed my 'fun' switch in that position. You may have to drop that panel down & see where wires might go.

[Sunkist]

go take a picture buddy.

lol all the cars have different bloody switches.

Q: what is the problem with running staggered width wheels/.tyres on an M35, i have had mixed opinions from GTR owners but was curious as to what you guys all thought.

Rolling diameter I understand but width should really be a factor...

[Sunkist]

the generally unplug the switch on the stalk. there is a small cutout at the back of the indicator stalk, remove and plug it back in.

if you have an aero model with the driving lights in the front bar, the 'I/II' switch next to the headlight height adjustment toggles between the bumper lights and the ones in the headlight unit.
