Horror Stories, Do You Have One?

matrix76 · 09-23-2010, 03:24 PM

Because these cars are so proprietary I am sure people have gone a head with mods not realizing the head crash that was up a head for them. They just simply dove into the mod and doing, I am sure, costly electronic or cosmetic damage to their vehicles. Just curious because I have seen a number of people warning other that there is potential danger ahead.

" " Danger Will Robinson, Danger" " , for those of you who remember the "Lost In Space" days , , ,

If you ever have a problem, be it wiring, body work, mechanical I got 2 words for you to get you back in top shape:

Duct Tape

Well, I think this guy has had better days. The car certainly has.

I think it was recently prepped for the Ghetto 500 endurance coming up next month.

Holy piss that finder roll job =

Jesus. My vinyl wrap was kind of a horror story. I did it once (My first time ever working with vinyl) and it turned out not so good. Let's just say I used a bit too much glue. I redid some areas, and got help from a friend who had experience with wrapping. However, I still can't get my ashtray to close flush, and I've now managed to break all the tabs. So I'm going to order an ashtray cover from Tichner (For like 10 bucks) and send the whole unit to Longtran to help me out getting it to fit.

Second Try.

I have so far fixed the area around the vent and done a bit more touching up, it looks really good. Next the ashtray is off to LTBMW for fixing (As soon as my new one is shipped from Tichner)

The best part about that thread is the people saying it looked great.

There goes my lunch. I never thought I'd get sick of seeing a BMW, and I live in LA which is saying a lot...

Nobody knows what this guy was thinking when he cut up that fender, any other nitemare stories out there?
