Getting Back on Track with My Satria Repair
It’s been a while since I last posted about my Satria repair, especially after a minor accident I had. If you’ve followed my blog, you’ll remember that the incident caused a cracked front bumper and a dented bonnet. Fortunately, the intercooler and headlamps were unharmed. This meant I could focus on repairing just the damaged parts.
Choosing Budget-Friendly for Satria Repairs
With my budget limited, I had to make smart decisions about repairs. I opted to keep the original bumper and repair it rather than replace it. The cracked bumper was still fixable, and I didn’t want to overspend on unnecessary replacements. I found a Taiwan-made bonnet for around RM200, which offered great value compared to other options.
Paint and Future Upgrades after Satria Repairs
At the moment, my Satria looks a bit mismatched with its black bonnet and cracked bumper. However, I plan to send both my Satria and Kancil for a full paint job soon. It will save me some costs to send both cars at the same time.
The Kancil has its own list of upgrades waiting, including a new suspension, exhaust system, and HID fog lamps. But once I’ve completed the Satria repair, I’ll dive into those upgrades as well.
Once both cars are ready, I’ll send them to the body shop together to save on transportation and get a better quote.
Why I Chose a DIY Approach to Satria Repair
I took control of the Satria repair myself, managing the repairs without overspending. While the car may not be perfect right now, it’s functional, and I’m happy knowing I didn’t break the bank on repairs.
Looking Forward to More Updates
This experience reminded me that car repairs don’t always have to be expensive. Stay tuned for more updates as I continue to improve my Satria and Kancil.
