    You think thats bad!!!

    there is two of them :o

    A black one came into my work about 2 months ago.... I almost cried when I saw it, I had a bit of a look at it, its really rough, cracks here and there, panels don't fit together properly.

    Hahaha not to mention that when he drove in to the car park at work the slight dip in the road where th road meets the driveway he scraped the road with his rear bumper and put a huge crack in it.

    Was it matt black when you saw it? if it was its probably the same one, this was black not so long ago

    Get it done professionally as its really easy to crack / fracture the paint.

    For the e46, I had them rolled to start with .. it wasn't enough under 'hard' compression. so got the gaurds flared. Could actually handle 10's now :D

    How'd you roll em? The machine i got u can supposedly (*Sp?) roll or flare the guards, ive only rolled so far but i can see how it could flare them.

    haha good to see you are being intelligent and doing it before you paint =p baseball bat is the pretty whory way of doin it and you dont really get an even curve but basically to doi it you just put the end of the bat ontop of the wheel using the wheel as leverage roll the bat around the guard folding it up, Another alternative since you are painting anyway is to get a block of wood with some felt on it and use a hammer from the inside to fold up the lip.

    By any chance did you get a fine recently? :P

    No but i have had cops pull me over for absolutely nothing, JUST cos they thought i was a 'boy racer.'

    In my opinion cops are just overrated overpaid till operators collecting money from the public.

    The 'boy racer,' term is just one of those terms that drag everyone included in the car 'scene,' and give totally legit people a really bad image. Like ive even had my grandparents friends (grandparents live next door) come and say to me, 'ohhh are you one of those naughty boy racers? your car looks like you would be a street racer bla bla'

    It just sickens me, FTP......

    They wonder why people take justice into their own hands...

    To us oldies, boy racers are not age-defined, they are action-defined. Drive like a total f**kwit and that's your label - to us.

    Also this statement isn't entirely correct (well it maybe for you) police representatives i have witnessed on more than one occasion when mates or myself have been fined under the 'boy racer,' laws, when asking them what a boy racer is they have replied with comments like, young driver flash car, or shiny wheels and lowering. I mean yuh take all the dick wankers that drive around on cutties and spray can paint jobs off the road, but leave the legit people alone and stop trying to pick up any tiny little thing they can, JUST TO GET $$$

    Just trying to point out it has been going on for a long time, the 'boyracer' culture has been around for donkeys years! I fully have no problem with police that do, do their jobs, but i wouldnt class a police officers job as writing tickets, well its kinda getting to that. A good example is the auto salon in christchurch few weekends ago, massive bust. Do you see the cops hitting up the V8 or biker meets giving people tickets for loud exhausts etc.. the laws that they are putting in place are directed only at young people.

    The cops should be going hard out on people corrupting our society, not youths that like to have fun with their rides and see each others. People are out there killing others, making p and fuking generations to come but there main concern is loud exhausts and modified cars... or plainly said..... BOY RACERS...

    But hey, drugs, rape, murder, etc arnt that bad, boyracers are the main problem so lets wipe out modified cars and then we can look at the smaller issues.

    There wasn't a thread about this so i thought i'd start one. The term boy racer is used alot these days by everyone be it police, media or general public. But what is a boy racer? Sure every friday/saturday night hundreds of youths/teens flock to the major cities in hotted up cars and cruise around, and there are the odd dickheads that drink and drive or drive around in illegit cars. Problem is, everyone that seems to own a 'modified car,' these days is labelled a 'boy racer.' Ive had friends been given fines and even had their car stickered for no reason, cops thinking car is 'illegally modified' with absolutely no proof. Another thing that has been really annoying me is that police dont seem to concentrate on 'real' crime, i live in South Auckland. I know that there are people around causing more havoc than 'boy racers,' but the cops dont care they would rather do mass raids on 'boy racer' meets and gather god knows how much revenue. They say boy racers are dangerous, i mean the stats say only about 2% of road deaths are related to boy racers, cops probably cause more deaths than this! I know, i've been a victim of a police car crash. Cant really finish this post now but ill add more later, just have a think, and post your opinions, i think it will be very interesting to see what some people have to say.

    Cheers
