Re: Factory paint run under the clearcoat???

Ok. I have looked to the point of obesessing. There is NO dent. I did however have an issue last year where the rubber bumpers were allowing too much play in the hood. Dealer adjusted (to no improvement) and the service guy was pushing on the hood some. THAT may be when it happened. They will never ...

Re: Factory paint run under the clearcoat???

I agree it LOOKS like a dent but there's no disruption in the metal whatsoever. The surface is as smooth as the rest of the car. And if it is I'm even more pissed. Only my local Suzuki guys and I have ever had any reason to open/close it. And I know I didn't push down on it. I would think you should...

Factory paint run under the clearcoat???

It's the weirdest thing. You cannot feel it. And you can only see it in extremely bright sunlight from just the right angle. I just recently noticed this after having the car a year. Looks like the factory paint ran and was clearcoated over. Let me know what you think. Suzuki says it's damage and is...

Re: Tinted Windows

Thanks for finding that. Yeah, the font was another issue. The S says Suzuki and once is enough.

Re: Tinted Windows

I hate debadged cars. That being said, I did take off the word Suzuki because I saw the pics of what I think was the hybrid concept and it only had the S and Kizashi on the back. I thought it looked cool. And the S and the word seemed redundant to me. I was never ashamed of my Hayabusa, and I'm not ...

This is a bad kizashi

I was gonna write omen, but that was funny... to me anyway. Get it? Kizashi - omen. I'm a riot... So I am 1400 miles from home. Before I left I had the tires rotated. Well the dumbass didn't do such a hot job because now I'm short one wheel nut. My apologies to whomever found it rolling down the hig...

Re: Need help with rear differential/transfer case oil chang

Had what's left of the dealer do mine today (it's cold, it's close, and I'm feeling lazy). $90 and they used Mobil 1 for both... if anyone is wondering what they use at the dealer.
