Just fitted new splitter and broke it 30 sec later!!!
Just took delivery of a new front spoiler from Scott Lowe.
(Thanks for sorting everything out Scott!!) Fitted it in a lunch time at my bro's house. Time was a bit tight, rolled foward off his drive and it hit a metal plate in the floor that the gates rest on!!! :mad: Absolutely, gutted :mad: :cry: It has taken approx and inch square of paint off and bent it, slap bang in the middle !! Anyone got any suggestions on how to fix it ? |
Unlucky that mate!

I'm allergic to plasters :D
Just put some touch up paint on it and it looks a little better. Two pics: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...t/bugger-2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...t/bugger-1.jpg |
looks like a red bird **** or summat. It could very easily be repaired properly though.

Oh man, that sucks! My splitter is due anytime (courier didn't turn up today, hopeful for tomorrow) and I would hate for that to happen. Feel sorry for ya dude.
Got any more pics of the splitter on the car? Wanna see the whole thing on :) |
Ideal excuse to paint one of those white lines down the centre of the whole car:p
|
Slap a big prodrive sticker across it :)

It looks not to bad mate,like said before, rub it down with some wet and dry,a bit of filler if needed,then a wee flash with an aerosol(spraystore will mix one to the colour of your car for around a tenner),then bang on the obligatory Prodrive sticker,hey presto :)
pmsl at Carl2's idea though:) |
As Del would say what a 42k gold plonker you really are:D:D

unlucky kiddo
sorryt hear about that...
my m8 has an ultima gtr that he has built over the last 3 years and its cost him like £55000. He promised me when he building it that he's take me for a spin when he'd completed it. yesterday was the date decided and i asked him to pick me up from the garage at about dinner. i heard the rumble come up th hill (at this moment i was under the mini fixing on the exhaust clamp other wise i'd have rushed out) next i heard a loud bang and expected the worse. i downed my 11 spanner and ran out. On the entrance to our car park theres a rather large lip and he'd ripped a section out of the complete front section off. The worrying thing was that the section that he had riped out was 18inches long. When he got out of the car i asked him how much a new front end would be. I saw the depression in his face and he sighed £2400 i dont think youve done that bad m8 |
