Looks good mate, love the colour. Get some clear oval side indicators they really make a difference and look wicked with the blue.

Got a service the last week and when I picked the car up he gave me a list of what is wrong with the car and the prices hears the problems and how the quoted price he gave me. Would like to no if these prices are good or a bit high.

rear shocks leaking $360

r/cover gaskets leaking $240

valley cover gasket slight leak $480

caster rob bushers excessive movement $580

thermostat and gasket slight leak $45

p/steer hose leak $180

engine mounts weak no price

he also said there is a auto internal fault and that it seems like the gearbox is not selecting first gear
Any help would be great.

rear shocks leaking $360 - Diagnosis: Rip off - Get a good deal off here for some KYB's, will set you back half that and they're a peice of piss to change.

r/cover gaskets leaking $240 - Diagnosis: Rip off - Sweet F.A. bolts and easily accesible, gaskets are <$20 and takes no time at all..

valley cover gasket slight leak $480 - Diagnosis: Eh - Could be justified, bit of a bitch to do, havnt done one just heard it round

caster rob bushers excessive movement $580 Diagnosis: what the ####..

thermostat and gasket slight leak $45 - Diagnosis: Justifiable.

p/steer hose leak $180 - Diagnosis: Rip off - Hoses cost next to nothing labours easy...

engine mounts weak no price
