So I sold a pricey item last week, i immediately made a postage stamp with the qr code. Didnt send it out last last Saturday (2 weeks ago). I then went on vacation and only returned Saturday last week to such I got it all packaged up and ready to send today until I realised it’s been expired. I don’t know how to get around this.
I’m wanting to start riding again and take it full blown seriously not in a sense I’m going to be the next jett Lawrence I just wanna get good at riding. I would say I’m an intermediate rider, I’ve ridden every cc bike other then a 450 never started one before. Just hearing the rumours they are too much to handle, really heavy, people getting hurt on them etc. The only problem I have is if it’s too much power and gets away from me, I do have a non aggressive riding style I just like to be smooth
So I’m not expert in paint only used spray paint, I have a Honda civic ek that was painted back in 2017 and since then the paints somewhat faded, paint chips etc but I love the look of the patina. I’m switching my entire front end for a fibreglass and wanna paint it but if I do paint it I know it won’t look like the rest of the car for the most part. It’s also gloss black car
Currently building my ek civic hoping around 420-450 on a single cam setup. I’m now at the point I need to make a decision on what direction to go with on the car. I absolutely love the look of a drag setup so aggressive along with people wanna try and race on the highways for a little fun etc. on the other side doing a full street car makes more sense since it’s more friendly so doesn’t make people mad with the noise I can go to meets without cops trying something. But I do a lot of rural driving currently as it’s fun although I wouldn’t be able to drive the drag setup there but I would be able to drive a lot closer to home doing pulls and having a fun time. What do you guys think and what’s your experience with maybe both
So I’m looking for some advice, I’m really wanting to pass my theory but for some reason I’m really struggling to memorise the questions size and just to take information in as a whole. I do have a very short attention span just because it’s boring to revise although I must do it. I do have the books and the app but they don’t seem that well. I can drive extremely well but I can’t pass my driving test until my theory which has been on and off since I was 16 (I’m now 23)
Looking for you guys opinion, currently building my ek and got to the part where I’ve spent a ridiculous amount on building a 450whp motor so now I’ve decided to just go all out with the car. The car is currently black (last picture) but it was painted back in 2017 and paint isn’t in the best condition not to mention I’ve got a lot of parts like lips, bumper, wing etc etc. The car was originally red like the second picture main reason why I wanna go back to that colour. These are my options being a charcoal metallic grey, gloss red or keeping it the way it is and painting all the parts although I doubt the paint will match. I really like the red personally as I’ve never seen one personally but the grey metallic is pretty cool but doesn’t stand out. What would you guys go with?
I’m looking for some advice, I’m 23 about to turn 24. I’ve come to the conclusion I’m not going anywhere in my job and being taken advantage of completely. I started in roofing early last year and worked since with only having a single day off. Now I’m in a difficult position because I’m labeled as a labourer yet I do everything a fully qualified roofer would to a point I’m doing more work then my employer while being paid the lowest wage possible making £70 a day that’s before tax. The company has also supplied a labourer to get trained which I’m in control of which does make my job easier but i shouldn’t be doing it without getting paid more. The bosses of the company have started to trust me massively allowing me to do jobs completely alone but they have also been lying to me about the prices so I’m done with them especially after giving them my life for the past year working in any weather condition all day everyday.
I’m wanting to get into framing mainly doing the 1st fixes, I have spoke to a lot of carpenters and they said it’s great to get into but I’ve also noticed how much they get paid compared to roofing and how little manual labour you’ve got to put in compared to roofing as I lift tiles not shingles which is about 45lbs every journey and maybe do that 80-140 times just for one side of the house. With earning so little I’m still living with my parents unfortunately which I’m in arguments all the time, I have little freedom and authority. Luckily I have managed to save around 5k in cash while having some projects like a motorcycle and car that’s I’m building which is probably gonna take another 5-6k to finish but I’m in no rush. What should my next moves be?
I got offered a 2004 Ktm 250sx for $600 that’s registered, to some it’s just a old bike but this was one of my dreams bikes to build when I go into the hobby back in 2017-2018 watching a YouTuber. I’m kinda having a hard time on deciding what I should do with the bike, should I build it how I want and even if I wanted to sell it I can make small amount of profit or break even. Or get it all running again have a fun and sell it to make an easy 2k profit. I also kinda enjoy the idea of trail/enduro riding as I’ve never really experienced it before so building the bike for that would be interesting
I’ve decided I wanna go with wrapping my car vs getting it painted, the car was spray painted back in 2017 and somewhat still looks ok but does have paint chips especially around the windows and on different parts of the car although I will be starting with a brand new rear bumper, rear lip, front lip. How can I go about prepping the paint, do I need to sand it or paint it again
