dbr11k Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 yet again good work on the rust repairs.. i know how much of a pain they are (always get the rust repair jobs at work) but why didn't you's just use the blue guards and re paint them? Quote
1JZKe55 Posted July 4, 2011 Author Report Posted July 4, 2011 Thanks mate Na those guards are for the 1jz rolla plus Neil would kill me if i used them on Matt's rolla After looking around for a couple weeks for some good ones it was just easier and quicker to fix them (about 2hours work for both guards with a few drink breaks :P ) Well as it sits the body is rubbed down ready for paint just gotta get my painter into gear hopefully it will be painted this weekend it better i've got a HJ thats just been dropped off thats needs alot of work Quote
