Do you think this door is repairable or need replacing?
DavidSpratt replied to DavidSpratt's topic in GT86/BRZ General Chat
Thanks for the responses.. knowing that it has been repaired and being reminded of that is what is pushing me down the replacement option but then again you can never be sure of condition when buying off a distant seller. There's one on ebay I might try before going down the repair option. Thanks for your help everyone! Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk -

Sorry I should have said a second hand door from another car that is already in pearl white, or the repair. Would a door from another white car be a match or is there likely to be small differences between examples? I'm thinking to try another door first, if colour difference is minimal, which can then be returned if not and proceed with trying a repair.

Thankfully this person did tell me and he's a neighbour so is willing to pay for it. I suppose my dilemma is what will be a better job that will be a best match to the existing paint on the side of the car and since I know the man I'm half reluctant to take it to Toyota to be charged extortionate pricing, plus I don't have the luxury of RRG in NI Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk -

So I've had someone reverse into me and they've badly damaged my passenger door. There is a few sharp creases and scratches so the whole door will need prepped and painted. I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience of having a panel repainted (particularly pearl white) where the paint match is virtually perfect. I'm toying with the idea of a used door to replace it? Any advice is welcome and appreciated Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk -
Sorry should have said providing I don't f**k it up! Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

all i can remember was he had the light on a table and you to cut two wires from the pcb and connect to another and splice the remaining wire into side lights and fit plug into the normal loom Yea, think I have it! I'll probably give this is a go and will try document it so anyone down the line can do it, providing it works. Thanks everyone for the help Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

It's the cobra exhaust so the smaller box should mean there's more room- I'd imagine it's not that close.. "I order my valenti rear lights 3 days ago. If they come i will fit them and let you know here or i will try to make some type of how to" Cool thanks! Everyone in the states has the brake light function which I don't really care for Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Thanks for the reply! Don't mind doing soldering etc either. It's more so which wire goes where I'm stuck with and with the guides losing their images It makes it that bit harder. Would meet you but being from Northern Ireland the sea gets in the way of that! Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

You don't remember which wires to cut/ splice by any chance? (Or anyone?) Figured I'd have to open the back and do some fiddling which I don't mind, just some clarity would help as I've no clue with wiring Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Were you guys able to hook it up like the 2nd version? So the "V" bar lights up with tail lights and the bright triangle remains as a rear fog? The hawks guide has fell foul to the hosting issue from photobucket
