Hi looking for someone in the Devon area to help fit my mtech2 skirts/pods. Preferably someone that's done it before and knows what they are doing.

Brookside autobodies near Pathfinder Village are doing my arches.
They seem to have a mix of insurance, resto & the odd bit of custom work.

I'd think one of the guys at fritz in Wellington would be able to help. Not quite Devon but close enough.

Matt, as i've told you before, it's easy on the cabs, as the sill brackets sit in one place only
You can only drill in that place!

Fritz of old, about 10 years ago, yes I can believe that with some of the characters that 'worked' therepacerpete wrote:jmc330i wrote:Ollie does fit them properly......pacerpete wrote: He wants it fitted properly...........

Ollie and Dave know what they are doing and they work well.
Im very careful who works on my cars after not knowing any better and being ripped off with work on my first E30 by Grants in Wellington.
Because of that, I do most work myself so I know its been done right, but on the occasions there's something I can't/haven't time to do, Dave or Ollie are the only guys in the area I'd let work on my car.
Shame that good reputations are harder to get than keeping a bad one

Heres the home made job, thanks to rav for his advice and everyone elses.
Thought I'd upload some photos, to see what you think of my first attempt. Splitter is poorly and needs some paint.

Funnily enough it hasnt too much, I got it sprayed and three or four months later it started to peel off in chunks. Thats why I will never get a mate of a mate to do a job again.Rav335uk wrote:Looks good Matt.

Just ordered a heckblende too, hope I like it, think it might look good with the red rear lights too, I googled images earlier and a few with red lights and looks quite nice all red at the rear.

Tech 1 spoiler suits the lines better than the tech2
