Has anyone had their guards pumped?

i wanna know what they turned out like? photos?

how much? and where?

is it like the cars in japan where they keep putting fibre glass on it to make it look fatter or does it literally get pumped by beating it out or something lol

uses a guard roller

yeh chances are teh paint will crack.

stage 1 is rolling out the inner lip

stage 2 would be bringing the guard out a little and lipping the guard

stage 3 would be actually pumping it out as much as possible.

anything other than stage 1 would crack the paint heat gun or not

DMD, that who clearly did this car cause he is the owner of the business

but i dont know off a few other company's that do it, there one guy that does it out of his van at ur house....

cost $200 for a mild pump

Thats the DMD front bar im planning to get. Do guards need to be pumped out for that front bar? Also is a new bonnet required or will that front bar fit the std 34 Gt-t bonnet.

Heres a pic of my car, wen the guards were getting done. Its a GTR add-on guard extensively modified to look seemless. And is about 2 inches wider than stock. (Note rear wheels are 18x10" +16 offset with 265 tyres.)

I will post pics of the complete car painted, wen i get it back from the mechanics.

I had my Stock 32 Gaurds pumped and flared. They actually cut the metal inside the wheel arch and re welded an extra peice in to get it out further. Added about 1 and a half inches. This way definitly need a new paint job though so if you dont wanna spend big bucks i wouldnt reckomend it.

    • Followed ☺️ Assuming those are NEO rods, then at least 400kW all day.
    • Lets keep this going , Spotted this very stock V35 in Penrith and also saw a nice R32 FLY past me on Castlereagh rd , sounded really good.
    • Great work! Give it a clean up with some Emery paper, and I'd run a thread die over the threads too to clean them up. It will make reinstall much easier, and also life easier for the next time it needs to come out.
    • I'm not a fan of high humidity, it's one reason I don't mind being further inland out Ipswich, except the last 3 odd years, the drought broke, and it won't stop raining, which is making the humidity nearly unbearable when the rains are in during summer! For me, my body hates the cold, once the cold sets into my body, I'm totally screwed. I end up with severe muscle spasm in my back/shoulder muscles, and it feels like someone is trying to tear the muscles out. I have no issues with it getting stupid hot, so long as the humidity goes away. So the last 3 years as above, have been woeful! Ha ha. However, June 1st, and I'm only just converting from shorts and a tee, to long pants and a t shirt. And that's mainly as it's a bit wet and miserable and I wanted to work on a car.
    • I much prefer colder weather to hot weather, and especially prefer cold to hot and humid, Goulburn does gets pretty warm in the hotter months, but, I've found the humidity there is not as painful as even Sydney, the humidity up north is to oppressing for this old rooster  In saying this, it does get rather "nippy" in Goulburn for early morning, late in the evening walks, but nothing that a layer or two, some thermal gloves, and a beanie doesn't fix to make it an enjoyable experience, which is much more bearable to me than the oppression of heat and humidity,  especially at night when your trying to sleep If I recall correctly, a "wise man" once said that the "Southern Tablelands" was gods country, and I will not argue that point with him for the fear of a "permaban" LOL In car part related news: My intake is currently in Botany getting processed for the last leg of its shipping journey to my door
