its a right Censored when you have to get something re done again, due to someone not doing the job right in the 1st place.
I have had to get 350 quids worth of welding redone for the mot, as it wasn't welded properly to pass. The MOT tester ended up welding it all again for 100 quid. Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back

pain really when things like that happen, my old project I had set me back another year due to an engine been a bad one sadly. All the hard work we put into getting the car put back together ended up been undone again, and I nearly binned the full lot in.
It turned out to be a fun car in the end. Smile Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back

That's a shame about the previous body shop mate, but it's going to look a beauty when you have done!!

Welshsurferdude, are you sure that's filler? that looks like bloody wall plaster that you put on walls!!
Shame you do get some right cow boys sadly, My pal named and shamed the lad who welded mine the 1st time around, to some one who the welder knew. The lad was surprised, and said if the lad was going to do that then he could have done it for lot less!
Christ knows what repairs the welder had done to the metro i had before Shocked Seems to like his sealant stuff i know that! Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back

Where did you get those rear panels from? My previous owner reversed into something and the reverse light made a big dent. I didnt know you could buy those bits....

Awesome, do you think they're possible to fit with the top and corner cappings in place? As in just drill the rivets and spot welds, slide the old out and slide the New in?
