hi guys
the other week, my gem was parked where i work. some fuckstick decided he'd like my fuel cap door *u know the door that goes over the fuel cap on the side panel of a TE?* more than i would
what he didn't realise that as well as the shit as a shit thing plastic hinges, it was connected with screws. these 4 screws defeated this primative's intellect, so he/she resprted to taking to my beautiful gem with a fist full of keys under the fuel door, with 5 scratches and 2 dings
FUCKING SHIT
wanna know how hard these hinges are to find? fuckin impossible, i've tried wreckers, they don't know what i'm talking about, so i thought a complete new door. i saw 7 gems, and NONE, fucking NONE of them had the doors intact.
SO
where the fuck can i get these parts from?
sorry bout the language, but it's really pissed me of. the moment i get ahead with the gem, some dirty rat does something like this, or my engine shits itself, or blah blah
enough of a bitch from me, thanks guys

I'd say go steal it off another gem, but that mite in turn be mine or someone on here, so dont do that. But they aren't hard to find man, i've had two of mine stolen just went to the wreckers and got em. I have a spare one now, altho im not sure if i wanna sell it, due these always misteriously disapearing when parked at shopping centre. Anyway try ur luck else where with tryin to find one, if not then i'll sell ya mine for cheap i guess.
cheers mate, and sorry to hear about ya gem, hate C*#ts like that happens to my gem a lot too dont worry mate one day we'll get em back.
cheers. |

Hinges are about $10 each from holden dealer, brand new. Dont know about doors, should be everywhere at wreckers.

WELL THATS JUST FUCKEN LOW! if ur in bris i have one, well i have 3 but 2 of them are attached to cars, the only thing i've had someone do is key my gem, but its 2pack so its hardly noticeable and i didn't notice it untill someone pointed it out to me, (it was on the passengers side, i dont get in the passengers seat) but it dont matter she should be coming off the road in a few months for a straighten up and rebuild, but dude if ur in brisvegas and u want a fuel flap with hinges i have a white one in the shed,

the hinges are bastards to put on new doors ay, best bet, clean them up if u get a second hand set, get ur soldering iron and melt the plastic so that u can slide em onto the doors, then re melt the plastic over the metal, makesure u do a good job otherwise the bastards come loose easily, then just scew the new door onto the body and u have urself a fuel flap once again! |

Sorry to hear about your car dude.
I had to buy some new hinges for my car. Rare spares sells them for about $20 or so. They are quite easy to fit. You just melt the plastic with a cigarette lighter to seal them in place. |

invest in a pitbull, open a few windows, and then there shouldnt be no worries or if you ever catch them a baseball bat in the back is always handy |
