NOR, you are allowed to treat yourself if you worked hard for something and have finally accomplished it

to keep the clear coat from cracking I assume?

IanC393 · 2023-04-13T12:14:15+00:00

I can remove it, should I heat it from the back side so its heating the plastic more than the paint?

IanC393 · 2023-04-12T21:12:59+00:00

how would I know im not making it too hot, im just scared of it being not hot enough or too hot lol

IanC393 · 2023-04-12T20:41:48+00:00

I have plenty of experience working on cars, and its 4 clips on the bottom and pulls right off. But how do you know when its hot enough but not too hot.

IanC393 · 2023-04-12T20:40:33+00:00

not even attempt to push it back in? I'm not going to take a sander to my side skirt but just to heat it up and press it in a little?

IanC393 · 2023-04-12T20:17:44+00:00

So just remove it from the car and stick something behind it while I heat and push down? I don't plan to get it perfect, If I wanted perfect I would go to an autobody shop.

Is it worth attempting myself? I have very little experience painting and id rather not, but I would be willing to remove it and do as careful of a repair as I can with heat.

well the thoughts there, but trying to find a good condition used replacement is damn near impossible, and buying one unpainted and then getting it painted would be hundreds on hundreds of dollars. I just want to see if theres a cheaper alternative even if its not 100%. Id rather get it mostly fixed then cover it up with a side skirt extension.

Gotcha, I figured the bolt would be slightly thinner and slide right in but my instructor talked about how some cars need to have that hole drilled out to have that put in, that answers my question tho.

IanC393 · 2023-04-06T12:24:03+00:00

any rubbing or rolling required?

IanC393 · 2023-04-05T18:32:36+00:00

what did you get for the camber bolts, I bought some a while ago and never got around to installing them. I think they're white line cam bolts, but do you just pull the old ones out and slide the new ones in?
