Not completely happy with it the bonnet wasn't sparyed correctly can still see the original colour along the edges. where most of the damage was it's not completely straight can still see ripples, dents. I had two lights that weren't working (now fixed) and my wipers are around the wrong way when i wash rear water comes out the front (just gotta switch the lines over and it should be fixed)

Took about a month to get it done almost had to wait another 3 weeks for the front bumper to be imported but luckily he found one locally.

looks good brat, but then again the photos dont show wat it really looks like.

i got mine back today...it was like wen i first got it..i was in love!!, im so damn happy with it, its better then wen i first got it.

ill post up pics as soon as i can, ill show before during and after shots, give ya a good idea how much better it looks.

Cash should override all. Especially in the panel game. Got my proton fixed at woods accident repair in south yarra. had a nasty scrape along the rear wheel arch, knocked off paint to the metal. punched in the guard. Paid 800 cash, had it in and out in 2 days and they detailed it for me also. Suppose it depends on where you go, especially if they have to order parts

bad luck dude, with my r33 i had the worst run. dumb bitch druggie junkie that lives across the road was drunk off her ass and was driving her kids to school in the morning n as she drove past my mum she waved, let go of the wheel n crashed into my rear quarter. the worst part was that she blamed my mum for it saying my mum pulled out in front of her. funny thing is i saw the whole thing n mums car wasnt even started. so yeh car was off the road for a month, then only a matter of weeks later after getting it back i had a 3tonne truck run up my ass n write it off. what a world we live in lol

    • Not yet, might end up being easter now, didn't end up getting time off over xmas.    I've been seeing some concerning things online now too. Lots of people with issues, could all be setup issues but the consequences in some cases are significant.    All of the below are other peoples stories, not mine and are unverified.  Seen 2 x broken adapter ring that destroyed the gearbox as it failed.   They still do seem to have twin plate rattle despite claims of silent. Several issues with it not holding power but some evidence of constant pressure on plate. Setup issues with bite point.   Lot of people after 2-4 weeks swapping back to another brand.    On the positive side, I've seen a barra put down near 1000hp at the wheels and its held it.  Also everyone seems to confirm the pedal is light.    Does have me a little cautious and looking at ATS carbon clutches again .......        
    • I'm late to the party on this one but good to see common sense has prevailed and the turbo kit is coming. 
    • She's looking good Greg. Colour suits it perfectly 👍
    • I had a look at the FAB9 EFR kit, around $8500 AU before delivery, so add in shipping, installation, consumables and tuning, I believe the price difference would be negligible  And whilst I am paying top dollar at MX5 Mania, if I have any issues with the kit they are local for support,  and from my experience, will happily go out of their way to help, hell, I've purchased parts from them and asked "how do I install or remove parts" and they have fitted a few of them for free, this means more to me than saving a few thousand dollars And yes, 99% of the time I just plod around in the car, that may change once I start hearing turbo whooshy noises, but, as I have 3 family members is the constabulary, even when I'm up it, it is only up to the speed limit, or occasionally, but rarely, overtaking on the Hwy (I just plod in the left lane typically and enjoy the drive) Plus the kids would never let it go if I got booked speeding, Jackie is constantly getting critiqued by the kids about her driving, which I think is hilarious, and tell them that she is "bringing shame to our family", so heaven forbid if I ever got done speeding, after all my mouthing off about her driving, I would never live it down, and it would be another thing she would bring up any chance she got Like the time I got drunk about 15 years ago and fell out of a cab, which gets brought up at least a few times every year since it happened Good times
