Found my gf's lancer this morning, looking like this. The poor girl was in tears, and she's pretty damn tough!!!

So I thought, hmmm (after the urge to kill subsided), what can we do about this? Prepsol !!! (or any generic wax and grease remover)

A little bit of elbow grease, and a few clean cotton tshirts later.

i think i got it on the camera lense :down:

And finally ... its all gone. Even the caked on thick parts which i thought would never come off.

It could use a good buff and polish now. But it looks pretty damn good for 60 mins work.

so now you know. if this happens to your car, grab some prepsol, poor it over the offender, and light them on fire.

or if you cant find them, just use it to clean the paint off

Hmm thats a pretty good effort! This happenned to me once, I said screw it, cracked out the paint stripper and primer and got an uncle to spray paint it. Then I looked at the other panels and realised the bonnet looked better than the rest of the car.

It turned into a full body respray :s

had this done too a while back.....

both comments are correct,

1. people who graffitti cars should be shot.

2. prepsol works a treat,

alternatively rather than shooting them you could follow them home and give there car a thin coat of brake fluid

well done son top effort

Bet it earned you more than a few brownie points with the missus :)

Man I'm glad I got around to cleaning out the garage, used to park my car on the street/driveway, never again after seeing that

That sucks for her. It doesnt matter where you park. About a month or two ago on a friday night/saturday morning i was parked on my front lawn at the front of my house. They egged my car. Out of 4 eggs only 2 hit.

Lesson learned was never park on the street or at the front of my house on weekends when all the sad people go cruising and causing trouble.

alternatively rather than shooting them you could follow them home, crack them in the back of the head with a shovel so they get knocked out, tie them to a chair and then cut their hands off with a hacksaw so they can never do it again (you can use a chainsaw if you prefer).

Fixed it for ya.

hahaha. ohhh man. it always boils down to a blow job doesnt it :D

and yeah if i had caught the kunts that did it, i would have used their faces to clean the paint off. then set them on fire.

dunno why, but i like the fire idea. seems somehow befitting

well luckily for this individual the bonnet had graffiti with spray can....

a mate of mine with a WRX STI... parked it at Telstra Stadium one time.....

and some Bogan REdneck Aussie...Scratched the bonnet with a Knife "f**king Leb"....... And the owner was actually Asian.....

Alternatively rather than shooting them you could follow them home and give them a thin coat of hydrochloric acid.

Sorry, thought id add my own fix looks bout right now.

ive seen Hydrocloric acid done on a pain job.....

it doesnt do as much damage as you think it would....

    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
