Looking good, how long until compliance is done?

Looking good, how long until compliance is done?

Should be 3 weeks if everything goes well. The only possible problem (as most of the work to the car has already been completed just the reams and reams of RAWS paper work to do) is Dotars is doing a random inspection sometime soon and if they find anything wrong at all it could be considerably longer. They have already told him there will be an inspection very soon and have picked the car they are going to inspect. Not mine.

[jlnewton]

Congrats JL, the wait must be infuriating.

 

Bags shotgun for a ride on the first cruise you bring it to.

 

Have you given it a name and sex yet???

The wait wasn't bothering me much before, but now that I have seen it I am ready to go! Sorry no names yet, not that I have ever named a car as of yet.

[jlnewton]

Just to clarify, all mods have to be removed, destroyed and replaced with factory stuff. Bye, bye exhaust, steering wheel and gearknob. Not too upset at losing the gearknob, it was a razo knob but it still looked ordinary. But losing the rest sux, especially the exhaust.

[MJ]

what do you mean destoryed? why didnt they just keep it for you so after the cars complianced you can put it back on?

[jlnewton]

No, I know some compliance guys have been doing that, but if they get caught its the end of their license. The destruction has to be completely documented, even mag wheel are supposed to get squashed. Very strict, almost impossible to get around, especially since they do random checks and stuff. Doesn't really bother me too much, I didn't have much to lose, only a cat back exhaust and a steering wheel, I was getting rid of the steering wheel anyway. Oh, and it gets destroyed and then replaced at the customers expense. More mods the dearer compliance gets.

[Ska]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! What a WASTE! Bah that sucks!

[knore]

how much was it to polish the mags JL?

Also, if you dont mind me asking.. as ill be going the same approach as you in the near future.

How much approx has it cost you?

[jlnewton]

It was $120 to get the wheels polished, the best money I have spent so far! I spent 4hrs hand polishing them before I gave up and got nowhere near the finish on them that they have now. Well worth it.

[MJ]

That rule is a load of shit having to destroy perfectly good working parts. So much money to waste as they could be sold as second hand parts or put back on the car.

[Nexus9]

Yeah that is something I have never been able to understand, that they have the right to destroy parts that you own, because you may or may not put the parts back on.

That is most unfair

[predator]

stoopid in't it.

I can't see the possible reason other than making it difficult, as anybody can go fit or import those parts later anyhow they went and bought from somewhere else. Its such a waste, send them to Africa or something for godsakes ! so some little african kid can stick a HKS exhaust on his pushbike

[SmoothLine]

Lookin good JL... Wait must be even harder now that you have seen it!!

[jlnewton]

Pickup time 1:00pm Friday 26th March.
