Are you going to wait until spring to get it fix
I still have not fix my hood yet , I dont know if I should wait until spring to get it fix

STALKER

11-06-2005, 04:53 PM

yes, Im going to wait till April to fix it. Im not going to drive it much in winter. I need to get my new front bumper put on aswell and I might get the hood repainted aswell since its got a lot of chips. So I figure I will do it all in April.

It looks like somebody backup and hit your car.

My neighbor across the street did that once to me. His car left some paints on my car so he has no choice but to pay for it.

That sucks man, but front fenders are easy to unbolt and replace. Most likely, the paint will have to be blended in to the door and bumper. BTW, hit me up on PM.

Pej, sorry to see what happened to your baby. That type of ignorance is just disgusting...

carbon fibre fenders from TC Kline

11-08-2005, 01:35 PM

Not sure if its really worth it? Fitment????
Kinetechnik sells CF fenders too, so Im sure Mo can give me a decent deal on them.

11-08-2005, 01:39 PM

go with them, if you have the $$ to buy them...

STALKER

11-08-2005, 02:33 PM

If I got them, they would have to be painted. I checked Kinetechnik website, it says $999, but Im not sure if that it for both or one side. I have a feeling it might be just for one side.

i always park in either my driveway or in a corner in a parking lot

TC Kline was $495 a side.

STALKER

TC Kline was $495 a side.
I'll ask Mo next time I speak with him. Im always worried about fitment with these things. Im pretty sure Im gonna have to replace the feners regardless.

STALKER

11-08-2005, 09:29 PM

Anyone know how much a new fender runs for?
The damn M3 side grill alone is over $200, I have already replaced it once, someone actually took one of them once when I was working in Maine.

Pej, I would call body shops and see if they have any lying around. I'm confident you can source a new one if not a good condition with minor refinishing from a body shop for a fraction of the dealership cost.

STALKER

11-24-2005, 09:46 AM

I'll look around. Im gonna drop the car off to get fixed right before I head back to Cayman, so I can use the car the whole time Im actually home.

Car is ready for pick up today, hopefully they did a good job on the fender, installing my new front end, and painting the kidney grills.
I'm itching to see how the front end turned out, gonna get the GF to send me some pics of it this weekend.

Judging by the damage I would say it was the neighbour across the street backing out of his/her driveway. No other signs of streaks .. case closed.
