Hey guys, can anyone recommend a good panel beater or repairer in the south eastern suburbs. Was involved in an accident tonight... my front quarter panel, head light and rear quarter are damaged, but there may be more hidden. :) Not happy at all

YEP, I can DEFINITELY recommend SUPERFINISH, just near the corner of south rd and warrigal rd (also on Cochrains rd) Moorabbin.

I went there through my insurance company, and the job was even better than I hoped it would be....

I had my front right guard damaged and my bumper skin...

They resprayed both, and rather than just blending the bumper and bonnet, they re-sprayed them both....

So now my car looks better than it did before the accident...

I just got a courtesy call from them 2 days ago asking if I was happy with the job, and if there are any problems I have noticed that they can fix...

I was VERY surprised that did this considering it was through insurance...

Anyhow, I did notice a week later, that the front left guard was not blended properly with the bumper and bonnet (guy must have missed it)...

So when I told him, he said to bring it in, and they will fix it up for me...

Now this is the kind of service I like, and the kind I like to reward by taking any of my future business to these guys, and by HIGHLY recommending them to others...

Speak to Greg or Con, ad tell them George with the Pearl Red R33 sent you, as he was impressed with not only the workmanship but also the service.

I took my car to about 5 places when I was getting quotes, and half of them didn't notice it was pearl paint and quoted metallic, others didn't want to blend things in, etc. Greg was VERY attentive to detail, and picked up a few things even I didn't notice (and I'm a very fussy bastard)...

They told me it would take no more than 8 working days, and they had it back to me in 6

Anyhow, that's my experience with them, hope it helps

My son works at Berwick Motor Body Repairers which is actually on the highway in Officer just after the freeway finishes. They fixed one of our cars and it seems ok.Worth a try since you're not far.

Thanks for the recomendations, i would have tried them but i got a really good quote today at Glen Waverly Panels, my friend is good mates with the owner and recommended him. I've bought a front guard and new headlight, and they are going to beat out the rear quarter, front bar and the corner tip of the bonet and fully respray the rear panel, side door, front guard, front bar and bonet. On top of that for a little extra they're going to touch up, detail and completely respray the other side of the car as well so the paint will match :P. They said it will take approx 12 days so i'll let you know how it goes, but so far i'm very impressed. The car wasn't too badly damaged at all but it still burnt a hole in my pocket.

    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .
