Hi im looking to find a panel beater that does chassis straightening in the Sydney/south coast area. I got my front end sand blasted which uncovered some damage. My front end is out by 10-15mm diagonally and its annoying me :( . also looks like its higher on one side now I look at it. Im sure its an easy and quick fix in the hands of professionals but I cant do it haha

Cheers,

Richard

I am a panel beater from the blue mountains work in Penrith. but almost any smash repair should be able to repair your car. looks like its the skirts?? not the chassis?

Hey mate im a panelbeater aswel just a quick question have you trembled the car diagonly and also checked the length? You can do this with a tape measure and go from the back guard bolt hole to the very front one and see if they are the same measurements

hey guys thanks for the replies. I thought it might have been the chassis but I know its had a smack and diagonally is out maybe the side skirts are out like you said I don't know haha. how do I check if it is the side skirts? if it is does that mean its easier to fix? I also noticed that one of the bonnet hinges is higher as well. I will measure the first and last guard bolt holes and ill update once I have done it will have to be Friday I have to buy a new tape measure I think my 2 1/2 year old has hidden it lol thanks again guys talk soon
