horrible roads respray required.

[Loom]

Are you sure it won't polish out?

I will only post pics of the past on wednesday by then she would have gone for a respray and the reasons and all other info will be provided.

Refuse to post pics of her current state but will post them up once the respray is done. Its horrible horrific tragic and disgusting. Fanatics dont drive around like this.

I understand your pain, but posting a thread over a week in advance is probably only going to make you feel worse.., and just keep others waiting in agony.....

Hehe yes agony for you waiting in expense to see the damage.

Not to serious. No bend anything.

No accident, nor bend rim. :fencelook:

A mereor shower hit the front bumper.

Was this possibly due to the highway conditions on Sunday coming from Rosebank/Sandton to Pretoria?

 

[Dippies]

No I believe more from my trip to durban and back. :fencelook: and more recent when I went to cape town

Aaaah i know your pain, i have sprayed my bumper twice now, and it needs another spraying! But this time I am going to get the plastic paint protector kak put on the front. I cant stand all the stone chips, i love a black car but i wont be buying one again... it hurts me in my hearty place to see the bumper covered in white chips.

The current place has qoute me 1k for the respray and 2 yr warrentee. Think its a good deal. Another thing that irritates me is the clear coat is starting to peel about as big as a 5r coin. Its a real eye sore. Cant stand it. Hence the reason why I decided respray.

 

[Dippies]

So I decided not to go at the current quote I got, I will be looking at some more options tommorow and will update with before and adter pics once done. Although I will most probably regret not using the current quote for 1k with 2 yr warrentee, my hart is saying cheaper is not always best.

i agree...

Got a new quote today, 2k for the respray, and its in centurion. Feeling a bit more comfortable with this although I will have to wait a month to do this now. Feeling more at ease with my decition. Also a life long warranty included.

Simple test as I always say

Ask to see their bench, take the name of the paint.

If they dont have a bench, walk, if they use luxor, walk,

if they use Spies, PPG, Glasirut. that says quite a bit, the guys pay a premium for paint, which usually means there is more money invested, and more care, as redo's are expensive..

If this makes sense..

 

[sash]

What does the bench refer to Leonard?
