Nah, small mishap whilst the better half was driving the car, lets just say the metal gate Vs the rear left quarter was not the match we thought it would be.... So there was a little dent that needed to be sorted out, anyways I just said stuff it and got the whole thing done..... It is as straight as now....

Work is done by Precison Panel and Paint in Bayswater.

The car has been there since October... Now I know it seems a long time, but I was overseas and they worked on it slowly whenever they had a free hour, as I know I was in a lucky position not needing the car to be finished quickly.

Price is around the 5 mark, plus the seals and all the other bits and pieces ontop of that...

I cannot stress the level of professionalism shown by the guys and PP&P, Fantastic service and out of this world workmanship.

Hope this helps

yeah, rubbed all the way back, 23 hours labour to get the car straight as, and the the 4 coats of colour and 3 coats of clear...

Not to bad at all. Once I have the car back, you are more than welcome to have a look at it to see the workmanship for yourselves.

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
