Ruby i will be done like a clown. I was supposed to do one this month but fate stood in the way!

I'm going to hit the website tonite (phillipislandridedays) and look up a date that would suit me and my studies. A friday is always better for me as the mondays are just too hectic to get back to Adelaide. At least Friday you can take your time returning over the weekend. I'm keen for a February time slot as the weather is better at the Island and winds are low. So at the moment, I'm aiming for a Friday mid February 2009.

No house or accommodation organised yet, but I've got mates over there who might join me for the day and we'll shack up somewhere ;) They mostly get out in the B2 group and me and a few others in B1. I might consider B2 considering the length of time since my last stint, and the fact I'm recovering from injury.

BTW take a ride out to lala tomorrow and watch me do my thing :banana:

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
