The rim is a Desmond Regamaster, i think production stopped in the late 90's. I like the rim because it suites the era of the car.

Not the best pics but you get the idea

Al,

Shit, these are nice rims... Hopefully it's fixable, cos I know how awesome they are and not many of these around.

Hope you get this sorted.

Cheers

Grant

Hahaha, the Business policy is straight off their website.

I've personally bought something there before, but did pickup and there were no issues with it (a cusco strut bar).

Means a lot to hear this though as I was about to purchase a swathe of stuff and it might pay due to check them over well.

Thanks mate.

judging by the first post, it would have to be *i just got edited because i can't help myself*? plus i know he had a container come in recently (mate of mine does quarantine on all his shit)

always seemed like a nice enough bloke, although i've never bought anythign from him, hes seems to be on the straight and narrow compared to alot of other people... if it is him, his english is a bit fobby at times, maybe he came across a bit hostile when it wasnt his intention? did he offer any reason as to why it was cracked? i know alot of his stuff comes in and boxes and he doesnt open it like mentioned, because for everyone one of these cases, there will be 100 others that say 'whose been going through my stuff? i thought these were brand new/you ripped me off'

not defending him in this case, just trying to understand whats happened (if it even is him lol)

So we can form a lynch mob and ridicule someone who crashed his car, even if by himself, not 'trying' to hurt anyone, and using actions most of us here could admit to..

But we can't name someone who would screw over ANY ONE of us? Someone who tries to take advantage of a system that cost's us money? Someone who knows they'll never feel sorry when crap hits the fan?

It's a rather convenient excuse saying go to Ombudsman's etc, when we here could make the difference. :<

Some one PM me the name.

if this is the attitude displayed by traders, then we will look into it.

SAU traders are expected to be reasonable, if they aren't we will get rid of them.

Your thread Ash, on fordxr5turbo.com seems to be well-accepted > hopefully well-heeded.

Good communication and empathy on your part! :thumbsup:

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
