hmm ok - does skimming including spray painting or just skimming alone will do the job?

Skim only will do since it's just an outer face scratch. But if u paint the rims in black & then do the skimming like what i did (& some others) before, it surely looks much better..u can take a look at the K5 rims as an instance..it will look just like that (only the design is different)

When i did this before..it took 3 days if i'm not mistaken..in this waiting period, u better have 4 spare wheels to move around..or else, find another 3 Fortezens who wanna skim their rims too & everybody take turn using each others spare rims & tires (+ your own spare rim & tire) until the skimming process for all 4 cars finished wink.gif

hm..if that's the case i guess i'll just get 1 skimmed, leave that skimmed one as spare and take my current spare as my permanent one first, should be fine i guess tongue.gif

Hmm...might as well just swap the scratch rim with the spare one alone..no need to skim anymore until other rims get some scratch also tongue.gif

Since that he will pay..u better do it for all 4 rims. Say to him that if u do only 1 rim, it will not look the same as the other rims. Ask him to pay u RM250 & skim the rim 1 by 1.

Hm...I think cannot lo cos I think he sure not agree one cos one rim only damage and even though bring up matter of not match color I dun think this guy will care...scared end up he no pay at all worse. Plus I din make police report cos he promise to pay when back from holiday

Hi bro,

Just wanna ask, PU/ABS is supposed to be quite strong right? As in, won't crack easily right? My bumper hit humps a few times (cos not used to the lowered body) then i realized it cracked. Was i dupped?

is it PU or ABS first? PU and ABS are total opposites so to speak..PU is cheaper while ABS is tougher but more expensive...most BK are PU to bring costs down..i suppose yours is PU that's why easily cracked

not too sure for forte tho...maybe u should check with the seller your BK is PU or ABS material? but even ABS its not an armor plating you know..if simply go thru bump sure can come off also

BK?? Whats that? I called him up he said ABS. But does it look like ABS to you? How to see difference? I only hit bump once and scrape the floor a few times (cos of high slope incline). Cannot be so easy rightt? I would expect it to look like what it is now (all scratches).. but to break? cry.gif

Epo, by pressing that button, it'll lock the whole car ? blink.gif

I'm meant to ask if I lock using the door handle button, would the alarm still activate if the car got broken in to ?
