I just wrote an essay and then my net crashed on me.. grr
Never noticed that arnie video before that hahaha!
ok back to my confusing essay that took long enough to type out the first time..
OK, so after an hour of trying to get out that bolt.. and a lot of hammering, and shouting.. a guy passing by in a van decided to come save me from jumping up and down and crying...
After about 30mins drilling... breaking his drill and pliers... it eventually came off - YAY! *happy dance* - so on went the other lights (both sides as I got pre facelift ones) ok so I don't like them... I prefer the ones that were on... these will do for now.. I guess *sigh* one break light out though, as it broke. and the facelift lights don't fit in the pre facelift side.. blah! That's a Saturday job that is...
OK so I've managed to get a mate that can swap my tyres/alloys all around YAY! So he has just this minute taken away 4 alloys (2 white alloys, both with a tyre on them... and 1 grey alloy with a bigger tyre on it and 1 grey alloy with no tyre on).. so he's going to take the tyres off the white ones, the tyre off the grey one... and put my tyres on the grey alloys.. Make sense?! I'm still confused about my plan but my logic makes sense, somehow... I will get them back tomorrow night and he'll stick my grey alloys on the back with my previous tyres on them...
Went to Halfords today to get the sanding stuff and primer/painter and such... was going to come to £60ish... decided instead of doing a terrible job and not being 100% perfect for a fair amount.. I should probably spend a bit more and get them powder coated?!
Also I sourced a back panel for £50.. my mate who just picked up my alloys is a welder.. he says he can stick it on for me no bother *big happy smiles* that would be cheaper than paying a repair shop to get the dent out.. no?! better idea?! thoughts on this guys
anyways I took some photos of my alloy that I bust up in my whoooopsie last Wednesday...
