BMW X5. Changeling.

Downbeat it was. Exactly how I disappeared for a while from the Drive, i.e. 3 months ago, People already riding on the assembled car, and I just decided to write about it. Of course with his consent.
In short, they brought in a garage, auto show ( or rather "Frankenstein"), asked : Do? And that we mogem of course, but some on-what vesch without warranty. A bargain and started. Just say — for the price tag don't ask, he was extremely anti-crisis, I can only say that the materials ( diesel fuel) gambolo 676 USD.
This rasskaz, if there is interest from you ( my dear readers) parties, plan in 3 parts. Less --well, no, the gallery on Malcolm X about 500 — something hard to choose.
First, so to say, introductory. Well, very much significant instance in terms of body repair.If all is seeing DEREK.RU, at least he would be branded a "Kosachyov" and as a maximum — snitched to the authorities. But do not worry, not so bad. All cooked to death by our craftsmen, it is not sculpted.Well, Yes, cry the painters after the bottom, but nadege in seams and geometry — 200%.
It all started with the fact that the roof replacement was necessary with racks and critiques how in spite of — cut on most not spoil.As they say, shit chose revenuee and therefore it may seem better left to native. But no, you saw the car prior to bodywork.She lay, native, on the seats( zhmurov was not an established fact lucky).Well, the new will see in the pictures. And videos.
Other parts ( crash not avoided) such phenomena as the da and the spotter not defiled. All lapalus in the best traditions of the old regime — napilitan. And that's all. Well a little bit more with a hammer. We then ( mostly Elena Sanna) sledgehammers were doranimal. And tons spackle hidden.
In General, Hello, BMW to visit us.

BMW X5 ChangelingWelded the roof on Feng Shui, micron to one micron, with all penetration enhancers. Prikopat to nothing. The seams on the racks was hidden for 2 days.

Can you advise where to buy? I'm in the city even applied only under the order:)) And wire Chinese production is the quality better than Russian.

Or are you so*** sent?

I generally refer to as processes for their production called"the Bob-pass me that one of grandeza******".

Because in body repair all homeschoolers are inept (this blog is proof), we can in nerezinovoy is half human, XS.

And by the way, what is called "grinder" is actually called differently.

Bravado and. If you know the design of the car, you don't need to be an expert to say that the face ripped off due to the fact that the car is cut off. With the machine was supposed to happen-anything, even in the nads, even a screw, but not the margin of the muzzle. The more so as it happened.

I agree, and to argue here there is nothing . That's just to say in the video presented to you the extent of the damage is in causal connection with the previously made saw cut I can't. And of course no one will argue that neratel better cut.

J
Jogan 27.07.19

And you can evaluate the quality of the repair, even if you see the repair process?
Quality body repairs will be done when the amplifiers are left intact or are changed entirely, but if the power part of the body and cut, then cut at those places, and spliced in a way that recommends the manufacturer of the car. Other is not given, the rest of the evil.

No matter how old the car. There was no metal fatigue, the car just broke on repair seams. Watch the video newsbox24.tv/novosti/proi...s_uchastiem_stritrejsera/ not the speed and not the direction of the blow to the face torn off, if it was neratel. My repair brought the car after shock is terrible, somehow they have snouts not torn.

There, the video clearly shows that the driver started braking and it skidded. That would be narapela after such a blow this is all just speculation. The video does not measure.It all depends on the quality of repairs. In factories machine also from parts of weld. not a cast body made entirely of chrome-molybdenum steel.

Way to buy a normal used car much easier.

Never buy svejenarublennoyi at the supposedly bargain price.It is based on the fact that the man in the street not knowing techcast lead to the appearance and make all sorts of scumbags.

Best buy podstawie car at a price svezhenakleennyh and with high mileage, but the mileage will be fair and after a small investment hemorrhoids with a car will not.

Even if you do it yourself (which is cheaper), then a bad job ... Like that one up again (I vareval roof in 2005 on the shifter MB124), so with all complete painting-bulkheads three months passed.
Amplifiers boil — unsafe design will work. I made the technological cut hollow, have added more elongated elements, and carefully scald the inside at great length, covering the previously cut out "original cover". Only this achieves certain strength, which will not play havoc in subsequent accidents (PAH-PAH). Even the medium risers were getting at the factory seams from the threshold, and the donor was vareval around the old place.
From memory, the hardest part is carefully customized. Ie the bottom without a roof ... plays a little back up from the bottom, a lot of measurements, some preliminary prihvatyvaya and assemblies along with all Windows, doors, and seals ... And if all becomes normal, without distortions, slams (at the seals), and looks smoothly, only then is the final "big welding design"! Wire for semi-automatic out unreal:), and if the cook is wrong, i.e. that it will not close as expected or the clearance curve ... get PP n 2 (all you have to do it again).
Under a dozen times trying... Tedious job to fit absolutely everything is difficult: one will adjust-the other will not agree, the third shot, and Vice versa. Takes a lot of time, 100% of the work is not worth it to pursue it. Never going to do it, for parts to sell easier and wiser. IMHO.

It is interesting all the same math of Finance to know.

She's like a month in the repair will be and then all three. Throw in consumables, painting entirely after all going to be? In Moscow the price of the X5 starts from 350 thousand well roughly with $ 5,000 (you probably have a third-half the price). You wrote that materials 700 bucks (very cheap by the standards of Moscow again), even with the work of 1500 dollars. Total: 3000 — 1500 = 1500 bucks on a shifter and profit i.e. $ 500 it turns out you can earn theoretically :-) given that I have a lot of not taken into account and assumed in the rest of the car ideally (although judging by the market, the problem with the boxes and benzo.the motor is the usual case).
