Looks deep, would need repainting/replacing. where on the car is it?
My new 1.9 D turbo - Coopesh56 - 05-02-2013
Left wing, just beneath the passengers window mate
RE: My new 1.9 D turbo - puglove - 05-02-2013
Quarter panel?
My new 1.9 D turbo - Coopesh56 - 05-02-2013
Yes mate just infront of the wheel arch
RE: My new 1.9 D turbo - puglove - 06-02-2013
Yeah that will cost you mate prob need to have the panel resprayed the faded in across the front door. Not alot eles you do with it.

Ouch. Shame about that. Tidy example though.

Cheers mate, gutted my gate post got involved though!
RE: My new 1.9 D turbo - puglove - 06-02-2013
Yeah bit of a shitter that. Its theq one panel on a 3 door you dont wona hit as you cant just go down tje scrappy and get one the same colour
My new 1.9 D turbo - Coopesh56 - 06-02-2013
Yeah apparently you can't take them off?

Though apart from the scuff tis in pretty good nick, only 53k on the clock with fsh. Brand new disks and pads, had a knew exhaust too.
Not sure what I want to do to it yet but think I will start with some cyclones and lowering springs.. And possibly a dump valve if I win it on eBay, though think that may be abit chavy

Does it feel deep? You might be able o polish it out with some decent cutting compound.
Looks nice though
RE: My new 1.9 D turbo - puglove - 06-02-2013
No its not a removable panel bud.
Dont dump valve it, it will make it slower as you will have to build the boost up again every time you change gear, facter in the lack of pressure and they sound like a very quite sneez

Not sure how deep it feels yet mate did it last Sunday in the dark, as I was leaving for base so was in abit of a rush, but gonna try and polish it out first before I try anything more drastic... Though I'm not getting my hopes up :/
Yeah think my money would be better spent on the lowering springs, cheap too since there's only two to do, it's just the rear torsion I'm not to keen on touching!!
RE: My new 1.9 D turbo - gurj306 - 07-02-2013
i say use a bit of G3 compound bit of T cut for the colour and a bit of polish after see how that goes looks good otherwise needs some lowss!!!!!!!!
My new 1.9 D turbo - Coopesh56 - 07-02-2013
Never heard of g3 compound, what's that? Coops
RE: My new 1.9 D turbo - puglove - 07-02-2013
You can get it from halfords. Thry do a massive range of stuff . Its a company that supplie the trade but they are now doing like a public version. My mrs has a shed load of it really good stuff
RE: My new 1.9 D turbo - gurj306 - 09-02-2013
It should take out most of the scratches as long as it ain't to deep to apply get a damp rag apply the G3 just like wax on wax off hope this helps
RE: My new 1.9 D turbo - Eeyore - 09-02-2013
Looked good!
