What have you done to your P5 today?

[fishdonotbounce]

Ordering the new rear crossmember along with all new hardware tomorrow. Also ordering the threaded rod and tie rod ends for the new endlinks that are going on the back. My sway bar is ghetto rigged at the moment.

Make sure you heat up the paint with a heat gun before rolling them or you're gonna crack the paint all to hell and have rust within a few months.

 

[justanothermp5]

yea i know i already tried it earlier this week but i gave up cuz it was hot lol
how hot should they be? my heat gun only has two settings 750 and 1500

 

[fishdonotbounce]

I have no idea since I've never done it before but I've seen fenders that have been rolled using a heat gun and those that didn't. I'm sure you can find the temp info on google along with how long to heat it up.

 

[justanothermp5]

ok ill just do for a couple secs to heat it up and then go for it
let u know how it goes on here

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Looking forward to it. I'm gonna need to roll mine for the FD rims I'm getting for next autocross season.

 

[HKPRO5]

I know i need smaller rims for autox
lol

 

[bazooka joe]

make sure you move the heat gun back and forth and not leave it on one area to long

 

[justanothermp5]
