Toyota Corolla E170 11th Gen Facelift In Pakistan

[Taimur92]

So you're afraid because you constantly keep your corolla above 5000rpm and 130C operating temperatures?

Lol that would be a Guinness book world record if your 1zr, 2zr, 1nz, etc engine is still in perfect working order.

Dudes and girls. My car has developed a tiny rust spot, and it is gaining in size, it has been neglected for quite sometime now.

I’m not a professional painter by any means and I want to get rid of it ASAP.

So the procedure is simple, but still difficult for a layman like me. What do you guys suggest? Should I go to a painter and get it done? Well, considering the paint job a painter did on removing a simple scratch on my car’s bumper is terrible.

Where should I go? Do car detailers offer such a job in Karachi, Bin Qasim Area? Thanks.

I feel like DIYing. Although, I need some sandpapers, the correct paint spray, primer, clear coat spray (??), polish. That would be expensive and an overkill for a small job.

Yar rock chipped hay ye.

Qalm lagain..pata bhi nhn lagay ga as this area will not be prominent.

Sanding after that..then compounding..voilaa

Just use paint with hardener..no need for primer etc..this area is very much hidden once done. Proper paint work is just not worth the cost and time on this particular part

Check chrisfix video on this

I did. It sounds like a lengthy method and requires a lot of products. Thanks for the input tho, appreciated.

Cracked my indicator light cover yesterday, while maneuvering from a tight spot in reverse... Thank god it didn’t damage or scratch the mirror nor the cover itself. I checked the prices for the cover in Pakwheels, they’re selling for Rs. 1,700.
I contacted Partcenteral but they’re off the work until 31 May.

Will be replacing this, even tho it doesn’t look very prominent. I feel like it can get foggy and attract moisture while driving. Also, it might damage the wiring or something while washing.

I also needed that for a friend's car. Partscental kay pass nhn hai ye . Pakwheels one is local type..not good in quality. Get oem one around 3350

[fastian04]

Simple touch up lagao..simple and easy..this area will be barely noticeable

[paladin]

It says Taiwan made. 3350 for a mere OEM cover man, what the world has come to.

[fastian04]

I got that..for right side... finishing was not good..so then got oem one

Around 1.5 year back i had the same part replaced in insurance.
Part was around 2250 and insurance payed 1900 out of it
Part was bought and changed at Toyota Islamabad

What is tbn of quartz 9000? Anyone found in data sheet..i tried different region sites without success. Why some companies like even shell don't mention tbn?

[paladin]

finishing

Did you compare it side by side? Also, the one you got it changed for, had their cover fully broken or just cracked?

[fastian04]

Broken

[autophile]
