I think the point here has been missed. Sure you can do it cheaper yourself but there is no way the job you do will be anywhere near the quality of Louies. What you get with him is genuine top quality work at a good price. Comparing Louie to a home job is an insult to him.

As for:

It's aggressive and uncalled for. Keep it to yourself or warnings will be handed out.

i think you missed the point here. im comparing his work to every other paint job ive had on my cars. as sam916 said, $350 for a front bar respray with a lip in WHITE is a bit pricey. white is the easiest colour to work with, so i gave my opinion. we do still believe in freedom of speech dont we?

as for my comment, someone called me a tightass over nothing. i didnt like it so i made it clear that i didnt like it. im not a little bitch that will take shit from people and say/do anything about it. and if you want to give me a warning over that then do it. ill see it as a constant reminder as to how stupid sau moderators can be sometimes.

Joe there are smarter ways to get your point across without coming across so rude mate, people might be more accepting of your views and points if it was laid out as a discussion and not as an argument. People are not always going to see eye to eye. I'm lazy and would rather pay some one else to do the work on my car than to do it myself, thats my angle it. You would rather spend money on tools that would allow you to do the work yourself not just for the one thing but for more projects you have in the future and to also expand your abilities when it comes to working your car, and thats awesome too.

So if some one rubs you the wrong, how about you explain your point of view next time instead of jumping on the defensive straight away.

And if there was a warning, it might be a good idea to take that as a chance to reflect on your actions not the actions of the moderators.

I personally have 2 different shades of white on my car thanks to the job done by a very reputable panel shop. I've seen it on other white cars too.

It wouldn't have happened if Louie painted it, I can guarantee you that.

im not rude to anyone who isnt rude to me first mate.

calling me aggressive isnt a smart thing to do when im not being aggressive in the first place. i was making it clear that i dont want to be talked to that way. adam saw it as aggressive and was wrong. call me a name to my face and ill say exactly the same thing.

just like mods give warnings. why cant i give social warnings myself? i dont see that as being aggressive at all. would you rather i grabbed the old baseball bat and went down to his house? thats not how things are done :)

Joe you are being agressive. Keep it up and I'm happy to ban you. This is not a democracy with free speech it is Prank's kingdom and the admins and mods are bitches that do his bidding. If you don't like it start www.joesskylinekingdom.com and set your own rules there.

everyone is seeing this in whatever light they want to like its some kind of drama.

i wasnt being aggressive, ive got better things to do than pick fights with people on the internet.

ive got a problem with mods seeing someone call me a tightass and expect me to sit around like a loser.

its time for you guys to get over it.

hi to all.... good to see the location of the new shop is getting known on skyline australia. if anyone wishes to come for a quote dont hesitate to give me a call to make an appointment.

For those who are worrying about colour matching have no fear louie is hear.

They way i read it... Anthony was more aggressive to begin with.. although he has a point, his demeanor was definitely more aggressive.

Anyhooo.. i wonder what Louie would charge for a front end respray....

Roughly how much would it be to spray metallic black front, rear and side? Approx.?

best to give him a call and have a talk to him yourself. if its a kit from jetspeed or carmate expect ot be paying more as more work goes into getting a quality finish.

also note that if you are after a bodykit have a talk to him and see what he'll be able to do.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
