Sze Kang

Gotten back my ride.
Repair and respray of fender and front bumper - S$200
Repair 2 rear rims - S$80
Rental of Mit Colt (2 days ) - S$120
Labor for changing stock tail lights to Esdepo lights and removal of front scuff plates - S$30



No complaints on the paint job for fender and bumper, HOWEVER the fender is still slightly "bent" in.




No complaints on repair and paint job for both rims, forgot to ask them to remove the black spots gotten from Jeep Chee.

The Rim With Serious Kerb Rash




The Black Paint Spots Caused By Jeep Chee


The Rim With Minor Kerb Rash


The Black Paint Spots Caused By Jeep Chee


Also discover a tiny paint chip on the rear bumper which I'm sure wasn't present when I sent in the car. Lastly, rear bumper gaps seems slightly larger than usual...
Overall feel, not tip-top service but probably will still patronise.

Installation Of Extractor & ARB + End Links Reinforce

Visited Jeep Chee (Robert) to get the 4-1 Extractor, Ultra Racing Rear Anti-Roll Bar installed, as well as to do up the reinforcements of the end links.
Total damage - S$180

Removing Stock Header



Fixed UR ARB




End Links & Affected Rims



Personally, not very happy overall. the welding for the reinforcement end links looks shoddy, worse, whilst spraying them to black, rims were not covered resulting in numerous black spots...

As for installation of extractor, I just realised that I lost a piece of plastic cover (the piece that allows access to adjust hardness of the coilovers at driver's side) and there's some metal piece that seems not to have been put back properly.

Will definitely take my business elsewhere the next time round.

Also took the chance to take a few pics of the rear BC BR 6kg springs.
