I now want a widebody smartcar with GSX-R Engine. Lol. How much wider do they need to be, to be safe?

GabAlmighty 04-09-2018 09:21 AM

Pancake wide

Fortwo has ran fine at Ridge and Mission with few different organizers. Remember to point by when you see a Smart behind you.

PS: Smart Fortwo 451 width is 1560mm and height is 1540mm

This car has got to be the absolute darling of the Good Buys thread. An unbelievable and amazing transformation. Well done.

Definitely gotta know where you got it wrapped, and ballpark price lol

punkwax 04-09-2018 05:33 PM

That looks fantastic with the new wrap. Well done sir.

That's a beautiful red. And I love the gold hardware on your S1s! Great taste and job!

Just realized on the windshield banner it says ‘dip dr.’ So it might even be plastidip. Imressive

I thought you could actually get a ticket for that if you didn't pay by phone?

Badhobz 04-10-2018 09:53 AM

No idea Mr smoothie. I thought if it's broken it means you don't have to pay (4.25 an hour x 4 so I saved 17 bucks last night !!!)

That or the meter was commenting on how far away I parked from the curb.

Yeah, even when the meter doesn't work like Badhobz has shown, you are still supposed to pay for parking via the mobile app if you were to use the parking space. Otherwise, a bylaw officier can still ticket you, and your claim that you can't feed the meter would not be valid defence.

Something to know for next time.

It’s not vinyl wrap, paint, or Plasti dip. This is new product called liquid wrap! It’s smooth and applied with auto paint equipment, so you can get paint results that peel off.

I opted with the satin/matte finish for thar bmw frozen look!
But the gloss version is sandable like paint. its pretty neat.

instagram is @dipdr he can explain it better since in the beginning i also thought it was plasti dip. haha

Mr.Money 04-10-2018 11:20 AM

whoa,interesting..wonder how it holds up compared to wrap.

twitchyzero 04-10-2018 03:04 PM

I wouldn't pay either if they can't upkeep the parking equipment
pretend like you're still on a flip phone :ilied:

Badhobz 04-10-2018 03:21 PM

I'm surprised I got away with it. I was there 4 hours. I thought those parking jerks would be on it like flies on shit. Especially that area.

bcedhk 04-10-2018 03:41 PM

parking jerks? those guys are doing their job to enforce city bylaw.
