any money its a 15 yr old car and it needs a full rehaul anyways. I've seen bayside blue on an R32 and it doesn't look good. Something about all them orange lights clashing witht he blue. ANyawys, a full respray inside and out should cost around $3000. So you don't have an engine bay that's black and a shell that's blue and a boot lid that's green underneath etc.

Hey, im thinking of painting my r34 bayside blue. But im not sure how itll look. i know on pics and movies it looks awsome but how bout in the real world lol ?have you seen one b4?

I would love to know how you would be able to paint a r32 in and out for $3000.

Now dought it would have small dents and scratches on it, so they have to be repaired, so the car would need to be 2 pack primed then blocked down and painted, not to mention stipped down to be able to paint it, eg door handles, bars,headlights, tail light blinkers and the likes. That sounds like a couple of days work right there if not weeks,

plus the cost of materials is about $2000 on its own. Your looking more like $6000 to $10,000 to do the job properly

for in and out of the doors, boot lid and the rest. Un less you get some back yarder to do it with cheap quality paint

and it loses gloss after one summer out side.

just my 2cents

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
