bernieboy Posted August 22, 2008 Report Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) Man that's no good. I was just reading this thread last night & thought what a good job you've done to the car. Is your fender mirror broken too & weren't they factory pinstripes as well? Edited August 22, 2008 by bernieboy Quote
fink Posted August 23, 2008 Author Report Posted August 23, 2008 yeh factory pin stips but I'm sure i can just replicate something similar and yeh fender mirror got broken but not in the crash it happened just after when a mate slipped over and took down my mirror with hmm .............................................. not happy Quote
harun Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 yeh factory pin stips but I'm sure i can just replicate something similar and yeh fender mirror got broken but not in the crash it happened just after when a mate slipped over and took down my mirror with hmm .............................................. not happy looks like to much hassle to get fixed. Good luck with the repair..... Quote
bernieboy Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 and yeh fender mirror got broken but not in the crash it happened just after when a mate slipped over and took down my mirror with hmm .............................................. not happy Adding salt to the wound. Brings a giggle too. Good luck with the repairs. Quote
adam-__- Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 That's farked dude.. I saw your nick on msn, but didn't get a chance to talk to ya. Sorry I couldn't make it last night either. I would've been more keen if I didn't have an open wheeler. :jamie: Let me know if I can do anything to help. I'll probably head to the wreckers sometime tomorrow or next week and can get some parts if needed. Quote
fink Posted August 23, 2008 Author Report Posted August 23, 2008 I'm just gonna fit a flat front to it so i can go twin headlights soon Quote

roladude Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 dammmn thats bad luck :jamie: but it allgood that it is fixable ;) Quote
78_7kRolla Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 Sorry to see this mate, at least it is a relatively easy fix and gives you an excuse to get started with the twin headlight conversion. Pin striping is an easy fix, there are plenty of guys who can replicate just about any pinstripe. Matt. Quote
