Zihua, Week One

Day one,

Monday, November 30. A crew arrived to do some fibreglass and paint repairs to a neighbours trailer. Art liked the workmanship so we decided to have an old OOPS and sundry scratches and rock chips taken care of:






Old OOPS repaired and primered several years ago:



New Colour coat and top coat, looking like new. 

Note the colour match. Only part of the panel was painted.




They came back a few days later to apply the clear coat. 

6,300 pesos in all. $525.00 Canadian



Margarito spotted the damaged bumper on the Jeep and asked if we wanted it repaired as well.


We had been told by the dealer at home that it could not be repaired as it wasn't open at the back and we would require a new bumper. 2000 pesos (160.00 Canadian) later it had been removed and taken to the shop, the back cut open, damage repaired, back plastic welded up, painted and re-installed. Cheaper even than our insurance deductible.
