    Re: a Little update on my lovely 86 hatch

    nop. The body is 100% done. But i can't take it back home. The bodyshop decided that it cost me 3000$cdn more. And he told me this in the end. He knew that i was not able to spend more than 1000$ more... but he did it... So i am looking for a deal with him.....

    Wow, that kinda sucks.
    But, if you're building a show car, you've gotta go all the way when it comes to things like paint. That's seriously hot.

    Of course I'm lazy. If I wanted to work on my car I'd have gotten a DSM

    Re: a Little update on my lovely 86 hatch

    as i said, the car is done. paint and everything. I know for a show car i need to go further than other peoples.... but take a look to all the pics.. Remember that the shaving was already did before i bring my car to this body shop. Don't tell me that you are seeing a car with a 9000$cdn body job....

    IMO, i don't think so...

    Re: a Little update on my lovely 86 hatch

    That's how much it cost? I knew you said he overcharged you but damn! I thought you just meant you got more work done than you intended, I didn't know it cost that much. I must have read something wrong.

    Ask some other shops what they would have priced and then try to talk him down to that.

    Nice! I saw that color on a Skyline I worked on a little while, it looks great in person. Especially in the sun.

    Man that sucks. I know he could cut you a deal somehow. After all when you get it back it will be advertisement for him. People will see your car and ask who did it? And that will be more business for him.

    Re: a Little update on my lovely 86 hatch

    It was the day! paid the bodyshop and called a towing. These point was perfect.

    We start to put the car on the towing.



    Like we tought, same if the car look like a truck, it's too low from the back. The back of the car can touch the ground easily.... but the front was OK since no engine is in the car.





    We got the car back on the ground to make the rear bumper higher.



    So we puted some 2x4...




    Not enough high... add one more.



    A third one!



    There it is!!

    Re: a Little update on my lovely 86 hatch

    Some plastic cause of the rain!



    But have left REALLY fast!



    Got back home.... I discovered some scratch on the car!!!!!!


    After seeing this... i was thinking it was the same on the driver's side....





    Damn F*ckig god!!!!!!! At least, it's not too much visible.... It will be easy to repair when the car will go back for is last buffing.

    Like it wasn't enough... the towing cost me 300$cdn beside 225$ who was supposed.......

    Re: a Little update on my lovely 86 hatch

    Well, forget about all this and talk about the beast!!!

    Remember my custom tail lights? I definitly not regret my moove !!! Look by yourself!


    The front bumper job to be sure that the corner don't get OVER the bumper like some other pics i saw before (bullard, your car still REALLY awesome same if I talk about this)


    This is REALLY black all the way!


    The rear widebody was not really visible with the 18" on but you can CLEARLY see it with the 13" on!



    Another look of the car!


    My sedan JDM folding mirror transformed in coupe one!


    And here is the pearl into the black


    Again the pearl in the black with a view of the corner who's still not over the bumper!


    More to come soon!!!
