Vert question

[elford_tim]

OK, this may sound strange...

Does anybody have a picture of the side of a vert that shows how high the stonechip paint goes on on the side?

Mine\'s had new stonechip applied during the last bodyshop episode and that went on too high so I was wondering if anybody either had a picture that shows how high the original application goes or can mark it on a pic that I can pass on to bodyshop no 2?

errr mine doesnt have ANY

but then mine is a S5 Jap import

you are best speaking to NAS ( turboIInuttah ) he has a S4

[grinder]

is this pic any good to ya

[elford_tim]

Yep, it\'s useful although it looks like you\'ve also got stonechip paint on the bottom of the door (which mine didn\'t have).

[grinder]

im not sure if i have any more side on pics that will show you

that pic was taken for the wheel

as i said - Nas now owns the car - so he might bebale to tell you better

[grinder]

just been looking at some different pics - and im sure the stone guard doesnt go on the door - it just looks like it does

[elford_tim]

Doh. I just realised that I took a few photos of the car when I got it - the higher-res originals should still show how high the stonechip went...

thats got me thinking

it does have stone chip paint and im pretty sure it doesnt go up the door, its been painted underneath now.

lol @ G - why ma name in caps!!

don\'t know if you still need the info but the stone chip paint measures 3&3/4inch\'s at the front of the door measured from the bottom of the door up and 3& 1/2 inch\'s and the back of the door. hope this helps, sorry it was a bit slow have been a bit side tracked with my new project [5.3L V12:Hammer ] if you need any more info or pic\'s just shout.

Excellent - many thanks - I can get an estimated HP figure then !

Hi Grant,
thanks for the help. Grinder\'s fairly close to the bodyshop and he\'s kindly agreed to let them have a look at his convertible if the needs arise but it\'s good to get some measurements!

Cheers,
Timo
