Nope never used them, but i am using Provident Crash at the moment to get some bits done.

They are very professional and particular.

I pick the car up tomorrow morning to see what the paint looks like.

Cheers

Shaun

Are they located on salisbury highway? Ive only seen it but dont know quality etc. best to go to a reputable work shop (not that im saying they're not) but its best to see examples before you hand your car to them

If thats your car in your avatar, looks nice as is.

Id do the bonnet if you managed to get a fibreglass vented one adz! but dont do it to your stock bonnet, save it.

Oh yer for sure, looking at a fibre glass one..

Just looking to break away from all the silver skylines around... And there is so many around!!! lol. i cant afford a full respray so i thought something like that would be cool..

I have seen the 2DIE4 car! wild as!!! He is on the INFMS car club site n i chat to him there. The fitment of the kit is great!! would recommend anyone wanting that to go there, but i havent seen there spraying ability....

maybe, do the bonnet and the roof ala 180sx drifter style, but in saying that, be sure they do a PERFECT job on the roof. it comes out fecking crap if they stuff up and you have orange skin effect on the car. go somewhere that you know is completly certified with what they do and have pride in their work.

I recently got my car back from M&C Doyles and I must say I've never been a more satisfied customer. Every time I spoke to Mike I felt confident that my car was in good hands, he drives an R33 himself. He sent parts back because they were sub-standard and he wouldn't put shit parts on my car. He also emailed me pictures of the repairs and parts though out the whole process. Not sure about prices though, insurance paid for my repairs.

my 2c

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • 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.
