DIY : Repairing the fender Part 1.

Did this on last Friday. Kinda hard to find a free times nowadays. Too busy with exams and others.

Sand papers, can spray, tape, silicon sealant, and car cement.

Seal the rear windscreen, and I did this. Kinda fugly for now coz I didnt sand it yet! Back to busy life.. Hahaha. Anway, I rather it looks like this compare to rust that is eating my fender.

Looks good I think. Hehehe. Anyway, this is just for temporary coz Im getting myself a wide fender soon. Hehehe.

TEIN-inized! DONE.

Just to wrapped up the ending of the project. Overall, its a fun moment for me doing DIY stuffs. And Im kinda pity to Jaguh coz he hurt himself while trying to remove the rusty bolt. Get an insurance man.. Hehehe.

Rusty bolt that hurts Jaguh. Sorry for you bro.

We went to JMG (Jeembo's Garage). Jaguh was fixing the wiring of Din's car. Din will be drifitng this weekend at Bukit Jalil. Hope I can drive it for a few laps :P

Another BMW owned by Jeembo. Urgh, Im a whore on car that has a wide fender!

Took them just 30minutes to finished it. Mok at her limit coz 3days accompany me. Haha.

Din chatting with Jeembo about grant transfer.

I decided to raise it a bit.

My first breakdown on highway. Again, thanks to Mok and Jaguh for helping me.

TEIN-inized! Part 1 1/2.

I was expecting the car to be ready to roll back on the road today at 4pm! BUT, as usual, the more you dig, the more you found!

Rust that prevent Jaguh from removing the bolt.

Fed up, we finally decided to took the car to Jeembo's Garage and let the pro to do it. LOL. We took almost 5-6 hours, while they did it in less then 30minutes :P

I decided to raise the car a lil bit to half finger on the fender. Car's handling is 100 x better now. No more body roll. Will be stiffening the rear absorber soon.

On the way back, I felt something wrong with the left brake. It vibrates whenever I hit the brake. And also, just found out that the front rim actually is not round shape anymore. More to 'oval' shape now. So, will trouble shoot first what is the main problem, and will send the rim for a balancing. If the rim is not OK, I'll try to consult with Jeya then.

So, what is wrong? The disc brake from the adjustable is wrapped. That's all~

Will be posting the whole process soon! Too tired to edit photos now. XD

TEIN-inized! Part 1.

Another tiring day. Why?

From Sepang to Wangsa Maju, then off to Subang Jaya, then to Kajang, and finally back to Wangsa Maju. 8am to 12am!

Morning cloud is very nice.

I never knew that there's a beach in Sepang!

So, Im only going to post a few photos first, and hopefully tomorrow the car will be ready to drive again! More updates tomorrow.

TEIN S13 adjustable + Kayaba 4x4 absorber + extra brake disc = ???!

The true magic of AutoSol! Thank you Mok for helping me this few days. I'll appreciate it.

Fucking tiring, y'all know? Come and guess how low the car is now! I bet Jaguh is tired too!

More tomorrow!

Radiator fixed & AutoSol time!

Just took my car from the 'keeper' yesterday. I didnt leave my car at home nor at my college.

Radiator had been welded, service and painted. Looks good BUT the temp is still rising. Any idea where else should I check? Water pump is still working according to Mr. Jaguh.

AutoSol time. Did it with the help from Mok.

'Mazda' wording at the grill had been highlighted with paint marker.

Unfortunately, the rain fall down. So gotta stop first. Just finished front and rear lip only.

Front.


Rear.

Rust Treatment.

Some update before a busy week. Exam again. Damn it.

Silicone sealant for rear window.

Using the black oxide paint as a anti-rust layer. Will be temporary for few years before the car will be sent to full body treatment.

And also, sealing the wiper area. Lately, the driver side will has a pond every time it's raining. Also coated with anti rust.

Yay! Bumble Bee now have a side mirror!

Taraa... Done!

Putrajaya Revisit!

At 7pm, I asked Mok whether we are going to Putrajaya or not coz its kinda a big trouble for Bee to travel on heavy rain. Fogging problem, bald tyres, stained window, and etc. But, Mok said its not going to rain. So off we go!

5minutes later, heavy rain fall down! Hahaha. So, with fogging, leakage here and there, poor visibility and bla bla bla, we made it through. Arrived at Putrajaya 1hour later, we decided to go to Taman Warisan first for dinner while waiting for Jaguh to arrive. But he didnt arrived. So, we tapao for him and went to the same location (Palace of Justice, Putrajaya) for a re-photo shoot~

I thought by using a tripod, I will improve on the photography. But I dont think Im improving. Hmm, I think Im running out of ideas to shoot the same car over and over again. Hahaha.

Nevertheless, sharing is caring.

This time Bee only got few photos. Kekeke. Im more on Jaguh's KEtam this time..

5-6years target is making me nuts!

Mok wanted to pose for me this time.

Anyone agree; Mok needs some exercise. Right?!
Back to Jaguh's KEtam..

Sideways KE70 at Putrajaya. Sial punya Afif! Open diff pun tibai sideways here~
New clutch is making the owner to go even more further.

Jaguh = Master of DIY. This time? Extra polished rim. Damn.. Even the hub cap is can spray cover!

Hah, same car again.

Same angle. Boring boring shots.. I dont have any ideas for this car anymore!

Jaguh on the roof. Lucky him coz there's no rust up there.

Mok's pictures. Its been a while since her last photos here. Hehehe.


Model that didnt get paid today. Hehehe.

And finally, the picture of us. Two person that helps me most of the time are them. Thanks guys~

808 went to Spa! Hahaha.

After Jaguh and his friend left around 6pm, I decided to sent 808 to car wash. Initially just wanna clean the exterior since her last wash was..... 4-6 weeks ago perhaps~


So, the macha at the car wash offer me RM15 for interior cleaning which is to me kinda bargain, so I asked them to clean up interior also. Its easy for them to clean it up coz the interior is leather.

Super dirty interior.

Anyway, what I really love bout this car when Im driving it is, anywhere I went, there must be at least few persons attracted to the car :P

Jaguh told me that day at UiTM (he was driving 808 back to his home, while Mok and me went home with Myvi), there were few kids shouting to their parents, "Abah abah, tengok tu, Bumble Bee Bumble Bee". Muehehe.

While waiting, there are 4persons looking around inside the car while the machas cleaning the interior.

Taraa.. The magic of a lazy person.

Now its shiny and interior looks like new :P
Anyway, if someone found a 'Bee' air freshener, could you please update me where I can buy it. If possible, I want it to look like in the Transformers movie.



Oh, good news is, a Retro Syndicate forummer wanna scrap his brother's 808, so he kindly wanna let go any stuffs that I want. He's staying at Kuala Pilis, and I might be going to visit the car this Friday. Muahaha.

Lets see some of the stuffs that I want:
*The nose cone and its headlamp (Square lamp model).
*Tail lamp.
*Driver's window and all the window's components.
*Front fenders.
*Crown gear (Yes, if I get it, I will weld it :P).
*Dashboard with all the meters.
*Center console.
*Air ventilator for the rear pillar.
*Etc ( Will check out with Jaguh soon..)

Anything else should I take?

Argh, Im excited! XD
