Gritted roads aint a bad thing, but they do cause havoc with bodywork!

This happened to me yesterday aswell! I'm gonna complain to the local council - I pay my tax and what do you get?!?!?

I had to get 4 new clips and the jacking point cover is all smashed and will need spraying. The sideskirt will need re-spraying aswell as some of the paint has come off - may aswell get both sides done!

i know the feeling mate, i mate through a puddle and when i got home i realised my read diffuser was hanging off. snapped 2 clips each side of the arches.

try using sikaflex or sommat. thats what you can use to bond bodykit on etc.

This morning on the way home from wrk i went a little quick through a massive puddle and it ripped my sideskirt of (standard GSI 1), the skirt isn't damaged at all, i know they just clip back on but a couple of the small plastic clips have broken....:mad: is there something i can use to bond it back on to make it a bit stronger??? :thumbs:
