Genuine Du-Luck front nose


Gamer

Recommended Posts

I am selling the Do-Luck front nose from my car. There is some minor damage in some areas but all of it is repairable. I have opted for a new one because I am limited in the time I have available to get the car done and also there is the chance after repair that the damage could show again if it takes a hard enough knock. The nose is currently located at GVN in London so would need to be collected from there. Shipping is also an option if needed.....

 

Offers ??

Staying with the same look mate. I have only replaced it with a new item of the same style. ;)

 

I am on a tight time schedule to have this all completed, that is why I did not want to wait to have it repaired . That and after the cash that I am laying out for the respray I did not want to take any chance of the possibility of cracks reappearing if she takes a hard knock.

If she takes a "hard knock", it's going to have to be repainted again anyway? Dont follow your logic, mate?

Well I would prefer to just have to have the part I knocked touched up (Paint) rather then the repaired cracks showing up again and also having to be redone adding more to the job in time and money.

 

By hard knock I mean if I was to bump a curb when pulling up to a forward facing parking spot. Or if I take a speed bump a little too hard and bottom out the front of the nose, you might not even see the scrapes from me bottoming out but it will put a strain on the two points on the top of the bumper where it meets the wings and most likely the cracks could re-appear due to them being weak points now.

 

 

Quote from the body shop: We can repair it no problem but we cannot guarantee that the cracks will not re-appear should you suffer a small knock.

 

 

Hopefully that has cleared it up a bit for you. ;)

Yes it has, thank you. Sorry, wasn't being pedantic or picky, just couldn't follow your line of thought. Best of luck with the sale.
