Title: dent in ma roof
Post by: yonner on May 10, 2004, 01:25:51 AM
ok so lookin over the car i noticed some cracking so i took a screwdriver and gave it a good chip and its aloda filler oh well :rolleyes: there is no sighn of accident damage anywhare so its lookin hopefull anyway my question is is it a hard job to get all the roof lining off and more importantly back on so i can get this dent hammerd in once i find out how mutch filler is in the thing.

i think something has jsut fallen on the car and signs that the paint job has been done recently before it came to the uk is that all the door seals have been put on poorly and soem are hanging off whitch im guesing someone who loved there car would put em on right after a respray

Silly question but when you look at it does it have a wave in it W style kinda in line with the bonnet only i recall someone (name removed to protect the innocent lol)) telling me about a car which was repaired by bodyshop & they actually smoothed out the roof as they thought the lovely smooth designer curves were part of damage :rolleyes: & repaired them accordingly!!! So just playing devils advocate thought i\'d check yours did look as it should do?
Can\'t find any decent pix of my roof to show curves but here\'s one from when it was Japan side:
