Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday!

Good luck mate - hope everything goes according to plan and is as stress free as possible!

Happy Birthday!

I'm at work without the car at the moment so if it's stil light when I get home I'll get a pic, in the meantime guys don't be shy with yours. I'm sure there's a few engine dress up whores out there who are itching to show there shiny bays!

if some scumbag takes my car I dont want it back, so I don't see the benefit myself.

drastic! I think your car will look mucho awesome in white..with that kit..and those wheels! Bravo.

I just wondered as it didn't look carbon in one of the pics - wondered if you were going for a colour coded look?

I think you mean undertray? If they took your slam panel I think you might have a few issues with the front of your car staying together. I reckon it's the garage being monkeys, sort them out, it's not acceptable. does anyone have a picture of an engine bay that I can show to the garage to show them that they're idiots?

I love my JDM gauges - I can live in blissfull ignorance of just how bad my MPG is

is that a carbon lip?

great pics of a very wet day - must have been interesting driving in that weather!

one of first things I did was check all of my photo's of the car but the only one I have is one that doesn;t show the front of the bay..typical!

I would definitely have noticed the slam panel as I had cleaned the engine bay not long before it went into the garage. As soon as I put my hand under the bonnet to release the bonnet catch yesterday I could imediately feel there was something wrong - mainly due to the big old hole peering down into the bumper! I do feel like I'm the traget of some form of garage conspiracy at the moment. Remember - it's not paranoia if they are actually out to get you!

so is that a no from the forum then?

I haven't been able to drive for the past few days as I injured my ankle so not had chance to go round in person, as soon as I can I will be straight round there!

this is two completely different garages!

just had my car in for a clutch replacement a few weeks ago and ANOTHER part has now gone missing ofrom my car!!! This time the slam panel has dissapeared, I think the plan is to slowly steal every single part of my car until they have the complete car! I called the garage about it and then said they didn't have it laying around and so it must have gone missing some other time. grr!

welcome

yummy

ah the lovely soothing Nissan dashboard rattle background track as well

thanks for the offer mate I decided to ignore it all day today and have another crack tomorrow. it's just the one pad and all others have been replaced fine. I'll try slide a blade in like Alex recommended but I'll let you know if that also fails!

I did the most manly thing I could do - I quit! cheers for the advice Alex. I'll have another go tomorrow and see if I can loosen it somehow

I tried wd40 and brute force but the other pad just will not budge - I'm out of ideas and its clouding over and starting to get darker starting to wish I'd gone to a garage now!!
