More repairs

[Yokotas13]

Ghad
i hate making repairs
i ripped off one side of my bumper yesterday, so i pulled it to repair it

and decided to fix a starting crack at a mounting point on the front bumper, and reinforce the other side

pics ensue






how i work on my car


oh yeah, its going back on with flame throwers

anbd i got bored

[firelizard]

Nice. Now I dig the exhaust, complements the kit

Looks good. Sucks to have to do that, but i guess its the price you pay to have a car where people say "wtf, how can he drive it so low!?"

At least you are getting this all done while its unpainted. I reckon you should wait for air before you paint the car fully. Sucks to be respraying all the time for little repairs like that



i really should learn fibreglassing. Its on my list of things to learn, along with welding and spraypainting.

Jeez, sometimes i wonder if i should quit IT and move into automotive bodywork haha :)

good thing you know how to work with fiberglass. Saves alot of money. I think you should raise up your car until you get your air suspension. RIde hieght is so low.

haha, he'd rather break stuff everyday than ride any higher I think!

Not many people have the guts (or the desire) to go that far to have a car that satisfies them at the end of the day

why? thats ghey
like i keep saying
you gotta pay to play

But yeah DOm, im not gonna paint the car until i get my airride. hopefully next month if i keep selling wheels the way i do on zilvia

[burgy]

Sucks, but I agree, no paint until bags, and no raising of ride height. Sweet that you can do the repairs yourself too. eventually you may have to sell me a set of wheels.....If I ever get my insurance settlement so I can pick up a y33...

[Yokotas13]

you let me know what i can do for you, and ill help ya out lol

[Yokotas13]

fuck me in the ass (no not literally)

guess im fiberglassing my bumper again tomorrow
went into upgarage, and mis calculated by a small amount, but enough damage to put a nice crack in the lip, and pop off all the zipties...


nothing 3 or 4 hours of fiberglassing and sanding wont fix.

[speedaddict]

Airride is looking pretty good right now..

[Yokotas13]

no shit
but i just bought a camera, so its a little behind...fuck me for impuls buying

[mdenoga]

Ouch. I'd say work on the bags before getting the paint done. Did you buy any lenses with that camera?

[firelizard]

hehe, wow.

In this case it's probably a good thing you had zip-ties! If that had been bolted it probably would have cracked big time eh?

[speedaddict]

That's a nice camera...its so hard not to impulse buy...i'm sure lots of us here have the same problem!

[bippU!]

yokota, you should be getting yur stuff the coming week. pimp that ride! lol.

[fergyr31]

bummer. well at least you are doing it yourself. Many props

[garagefresh]

Least the camera is ready for the car........naw man don't raise it at all makes your car yours.

[Yokotas13]

I bought the camera becuase it can generate revenue.
Im starting to work with a pro, and after that i can WORK with him to make some money.
plus, iw as doing photography before cars. so yeah.

Is there some kind of guide to fiberglassing? I have a crack in my 98 LS bumper.. the bottom edge of the passenger fog light. Not too bad...
