Today there was a deepgroove to my front bumper C-HR 17 JDM from an accident without even knowing. Either a biker or strong sharp something (attached photo). Inner plastic is visible therefore I thought of repainting.
I've got some quotation from several places
Toyota
If Insurance claim 25K
Own 16K
Some outside places around my area (both uses debeer paint)
One person 5K with half bumper with 3 years warranty
Second person 8K with full bumper with 5 years warranty (Insurance agent recommended)
I am pretty nervous about getting it done in outside places, since bumper has to be removed and reclipped (my understanding is, C-HR bumper clips are one time and needs to freshly put for exact fit second time)
Or on second thought Do I really have to repair this ?
Nissan might close down operations in 12 -14 months? https://www.carscoops.com/2024/11/nissan-exec-says-we-have-12-or-14-months-to-survive/ Are we going to see more companies shutting down or is this a one off. So much for the new GTR and the new Patrol.
Is there an alternative to the Maruti 800? A friend of mine is looking for an extremely cheap to run and fix car for around 1.5M. While I do advocate old Japanese cars in that budget - if his need is basic A-B motoring at the lowest possible cost - maintenance wise and with fuel - is there any other option that I am forgetting?
Does anyone know how exactly this is supposed to work? They haven’t really started brand new imports again right?
Pricing seems relatively fine in the grand scheme of things, given how 10/15 year old cars are still pretty expensive in our market
A guy advertises a mileage blocker on the quick site saying that his device blocks the vehicle mileage from changing on the odometer. Is it legal to advertise stuff like this?
