C92hatchX Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 im sick of seeing this. whats the best DIY way to make it not as bad?, like i want it to be kinda back to normal, i know it wont be perfect, but if it looks decently better i can maybe get rid of it faster (ive got stock tails on so thats out of the way) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pballer2005 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 get a mallet and go to town. since the metal is creased it wont be perfect (as you said) but that and some white paint should really help. and the brackets that hold the bumper aren't that hard to adjust. my rear bumper wasn't lined up right and i finally just started taking crap apart and tweaked the bracket till it looked right.

Xeryon Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 New taillight, use a sheet metal screw or two from underneath to reattach the corner of the bumper to the quarter panel. Grind the rust off, hit it with a little primer and a little white spray paint to cover it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikEEEx3 Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 take a hammer to it, light collor primer with some whit paint you should be good.. you could get a puller(the ones that make all those little holes) weld the holes and then bondo it and paint it but that takes some time to do.

Nancy Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 take it to a shop and have them cut out that quarter panel and weld in a better one. had it done to one of my ej6's, cost like 300. that part unerneath that light thats all FUBAR is impossible to get at, it would be pretty hard banging that out.

Xeryon Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Will be even harder considering he unloaded this about a week ago. Never even tried to fix it, just sold it and bought another car that needed body work in a different area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
