Garage + Newb = Pwnd

Hello! I've just been not having the best of luck with my car these days.

In my previous Thread somebody wanted to see a pic of my car. So.. I figured this would sure be a great time to do so





To make a long story short, its my first time parking in a garage.. and well just put it this way.. the garage looked a lot bigger than it really is.

I'm just wondering if anyone has a spare side blinker light for my 92 Maxima that can ship to Canada and is cheap/used is good!



I managed to find, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NISSA...ayphotohosting

But does not ships to Canada.

I also searched,

http://www.internetautosupply.com/catalog/

Only brand new lights there. Good site, but I need cheap used stuff.

Nope, I don't think so, except for directly above the light the got scratched. I guess I should put rust proof stuff or the rust will start right?

I should have cleaned up the car before posting it.. its just really snowy here and car washes don't last very long.

Other thing, Is leather really prone to ripping when it gets this cold? There's this huge tear in the passengers seat which just got there. I'm not sure if someone slashed the seats or if the cold did this. I won't post another pic because we don't need more of these huge pics (as shown above).. but its like an oval tear in the seat.

not to make this morbid or anything, but leather is skin from an animal. if you freeze it and then set something on it (or flex it), it will crack and break.
onyl way to help prevent that is to keep tons of conditioner on it during the winter so it's got oils in it to help it stay softer.

and yes.. if you have bare metal on that scrape, get some paint of some sort on it before it starts rusting. you should be able to find some touchup paint that color. clean well with soap & water, then prep and paint.
