if the same number of welds on the new panel match the amount of welds from the factory, the car should be as strong maybe in sum cases stronger then it originally was |
Nothing wrong from those pictures. They have it on a pretty nice Wedge Clamp measuring system. They measure back to OE specs. Very standard procedure, replaced with brand new parts. From the finished products, the gaps look pretty even, headlights sit properly on both sides. A good/excellent repair job shouldn't look like it was repaired at all. Of course these are pictures and only a real life, up close inspection can tell if the repairs are good or not. |
nice!. real jdm style rebuilts when done properly are sometimes better than stock. looks very similar to some pictures of how rusty beat up jdm ae86 are restored to their former glory. |
the image source shows the pix come from an auto repair shop in japan ooooo |

Why do they put that much work into cars with low value? Is skilled (non-Nike factory) labour really that cheap over there? |
from the looks of the s2000, that's actually a pretty quality rebuild. from what I've seen in the past few years working in the industry, you would never see that much effort put into a rebuild. when you get in a front-end collision, how do you think your car makes it back on the road? I saw what looked to be a frame machine, they didn't touch the firewall *good* and the front end was replaced at the spot welds, the same place it was originally installed at the factory. nothing wrong with it at all. |
Apple daily? Need cartoons to understand. I'm not qualified to comment on the quality of the repair, but IMO it's only really unethical if the rebuilt nature of the car isn't disclosed to the buyer. Not sure how that works out legally in HK or Japan. |
All those Enzos must be rebuilt 'Lego' cars. They always split in two when they crash. O wait they do make Lego Enzos! http://www.oddee.com/_media/imgs/art...2_ferrari1.jpg http://www.elyliu.com/blog/wp-conten...enzo-crash.jpg |
IIRC the engine is a stressed member in an Enzo. Therefore, it is implicitly designed to split (keeping the passenger compartment whole) in event of a severe accident. |

with the s2k, they are replacing damaged pieces completely, not patching a couple of the same piece together. Here is some info on collision repair for the toyota MR2 spyder. If you read through it you can see exactly how it should be done. The guys you posted did the job correctly. http://www.northwestmr2.com/incoming...pair%20Manual/ |
^ I'm sorry, I must have misunderstood that this is the part from another car http://www.yokoban.net/image/020-S2000/026.jpg |
If they're using the front end of a car that was a rear end write of, it's still not a problem. |

Bunch of fucking idiots on this thread otherwise..:rolleyes: |
The ppl who fixed that s2k are serious autobody professionals, where did you get the idea that they are auto rebuilding crooks? man this is almost like mistaking Jesus as a hippy, http://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/110146/spot/130318/ according to this guy's blog, the shop owner's technique is at "god level" or check out what kind of cars they've worked on b4, and do use babelfish to translate what they say. http://www.yokoban.net/ http://www.yoshihisa-style.com/ http://www.yokoban.net/main005-gallery.html I guess the shop yokoban can simply sue you for libel (for calling them unethical) already. man, good luck :thumbsup: |
