Hey guys, I don’t think Ive introduced myself. I own a 92 240SX LE in Mississauga. Its just a KA24DE and heres a picture of her.
Anyways, now that introductions are over. Here is the bad stuff.
Long story short, right turn, car infront of me stopped suddenly even though it was clear and I rolled into his back bumper.
Good News: It was a shit hole civic hatch so he didnt care and we didnt trade insurance. Since I dont have collission, it saved my ass.
Bad News: Look at the pictures. I was rolling and it still did this.
Basically I need help to find out if theres any scrap yards around here with 240sx’s in them, hopefully close by to Mississauga or GTA area. Or if anyone has any other suggestions.
thats not bad @ all for a fender bender.
Check standard automotive at steeles/sewels road (closest main intersection is steeles and 9th line in markham)
They should have 2-3 240’s, usually stripped down, but they usually have the fenders still on them. Just grab one from there, get it painted and your good to go.
Nice wheels
Check the Buy & Sell section of the forums, there’s always someone parting out a car, so you’ll probably be able to get a fender/bumper at a decent price. Might not match in colour, so you’ll have to repaint it, but hopefully you’ll find a matching black one.
Ya I would not be to concerned my car has a nice ding in the driver front fender to and I am not stressing over it. Just wait for a parts car to come along that is maybe even the same colour as your car and take the fender from it (maybe the bumper cover to if you dont want to have to fill in that mark on yours).
Take off the fender and see if you can bang it out. Might pop out. Other then that try standard auto wreckers on steeles. They should have a couple 240’s in their yard. Grab yourself another fender.
As for the bumper, its urethane. So, is should pop out no problem.
True thanks guys, my buddy tells me he can do it out for me. His dad works for a body shop, so he’ll pop it out but not completely cause then he might not be able to fill the cracks, so he’ll have to repaint the fender, buff it out, and the door, hood and bumper to match paint and so everything is good as new. I had some rust bubbles on that one fender and no where else, so its kinda not too bad. I get to fix 2 things at once. I just hope its not too much.
