Just had my side skirts fitted and it's not a 100% fit with small gaps here and there since it's fibreglass .. So I need to fill in some small 1-2mm sections and I was wondering if there's any sealant that would work well ?? it would have to be black in colour as my car is black and not crack in the sun/rain (atleast not for a few years)

any tips ? cheers

whoa, builders products are a big massive no no. Shaving and working the fibre glass, shaving and sometimes adding is the correct way to do it.

But if you must seal the Urathane/ Sika , Sikaflex from a automotive place is the go.

this is usually black and the reason its a bad idea is painting skirts, bars etc on the car is not the right way to go about it.

but if you are make sure you do get a automotive sikeflex/urathane and make sure its not silicone based!!

there's an automotive version of the sikaflex stuff as posted above? it doesn't state that this product is for any particular industry so I'm not sure if they have an automotive one ..do they ?

Speaking of which I do need to get the side skirts resprayed as carmate's spraypainter is a f**king retard (it's the worst paintjob ever!) Can this be done with the skirts still on the car as they've been glued on...

    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
    • Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
    • I agree once misfires happen it's basically worthless, but the hope is you can see what's happening in the run up to that. 
    • You should totally get a Brumby, and then come pick up the Subaru Liberty GTB I have here. EJ25 Turbo, 6 speed manual from the sti (just no dccd), and the good rear diff. Drop all that into a Brumby and go have fun!
