Dentcraft they come to you

If I remember $150 real nice job

Will Dentcraft pump out the Gaurds a bit?? incase i wanna put wider tyres on it in the future?

No all they do is heat up the guards and tap it softly for about 20 mins

sounds strange I know but works real good.....no sign it has been done externally

My rears were scraping at every bump and after lipping never had a problem again

but as my wife usually says....no pumping

I think they are in the phone book, but I have a card at work so I will have look tomorrow

and let you know

Ok Thanks.. tha would b helpfull

What Tyres and specs do u have on ur Rears n how low is it???

Mine u can just fit ur pinky winky finger.. in the gaurds..

It's 265/35/18 wif offset of 32 on 9.5" rims

lol with a jack sounds bush styles too.

So does this; adjusting the cars coilovers to sit super low, then find some heavy people to sit in the back

Back on topic, most places don't guarantee that it wont crack the paint, they use a heat gun to heat the paint and panel cracking still can occur. Around $50 a corner is what most places charge using a proper guard roller, not worth wasting your time with steel poles, jacks, or fat people.

Stuart from Dentcraft did mine. Got the 2 rear guards rolled.

He will jack your car up.

Take the wheels off.

Bolt on a roller to your hub.

Use like a really fkn hot hair-dryer to heat the guards/paint.

Roll them, tap them with a soft hammer/mallet till they're lipped.

If your paint is original and in good condition, you shouldn't have a problem with the paint cracking.

Paint is Original and is in Good condition :-)

Do u guys know where i can buy some C Spanners or burrow some.. I need to raise the front end cuz u really can't really roll

the front end or will they do them as well.. None of my friends have C Spanners for my Coilovers..

    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.  
    • Maybe you should do some more reading.  Google positive effects of ADHD and you'll get your answers.  One of my personal downsides of ADHD has been talking before I think.   Maybe you have it too?
