Soooo, I was trying to get into the front yard of this house in LA where we were hosting a car wash to fundraise money for our organization....anyways apparently, we were supposed to go around back but no one told this and then this happened....this also happened to some guy's gt-r that came in for a car wash -___- how much do you think it'll cost to get this fixed and do you guys know of a good place that charges reasonably in the los angeles area??





i also have a slight scuff on my front right bumper from some idiot hit and run while i was at the library, which shouldn't cost much to repair...sigh good thing this was all before i got my wheels so there was no damage to those haha

 

I highly recommend a place called twins auto body I know the owner pretty well hes a very reasonable guy and does great work when I find his business card I will PM you his information

 

My guess if your doing both areas is it will run $600-$1K

 

A lot of that white areas look like it can come off by a good detailer. I dont know if the corners of the wells are chipped though. if he is paying, get it repainted but a cheaper option is compound / polish and then touching up the chips. good luck!

 

Ouchies

I use a place in San Gabriel called Auto Network-- Bruce at Auto Network-- this place does great work, perfect color matching and he has REALLLLY fair prices. I've had my integra painted there, my boyfriend has had his graphite gray pearl IS300 lip kit painted there, I know Mr. Pocky has gone there (But for a non-lexus car).

Check the so cal section, I'm sure you'll find posts
Good luck!

 

I've seen that before...no way a detailer can fix that mess! It needs to be repainted! The white is down to the primer and after that will be metal. The corners are shaved and looks like the front has some pits in the plastic from the wall. That is a respray job! Make sure the corners of the metal from the fender area aren't pushed in either. Have a reputable body shop guy take a look and have it resprayed! My Motto is..."DON'T TOUCH IT UP...YOU WILL **** IT UP"!

 

that's nothing, can easily be fixed.

 

Wow sorry to see that. Its for reasons like this that only I wash my baby

 

that looks like a good enough reason to flare out your fenders and repaint your quarter panels, then buy some wheels with flush fitment!

 

Wait so what exactly happened? You said something about going to the backyard but didn't explain the end of the story lol.

 

oh sorry, well basically the gate entrance is really narrow...and i guess i didnt know how to get in the right way (some of the guys said there was a right way to do it iono) and ended up scraping on the side of the gate as i came in

 

That's painful looking at it...
You seemed fairly calm at the gym today though.

 

the dude in the GTR must be ****ting. Lexus or GTR I would be tripping a little

 

oh noes, shouldve never went to the car wash
but u know what they all say, shouldve, couldve, wouldve
my friend mess up his car similiar to urs, and he just left it alone

 

haha well it happened a while ago so i've been able to get over it. i was quoted 500 to repaint it so i think i'm gona get it fixed soon
