GreyKnight Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Hi After my last thread about the hairline paint problems on my front clam I've finally gotten around to taking some pics. They're not great as they were done on my phone, but you can see the problem. I've traced in red where the fractures occur on this last one since it's not easy to see. I'm pretty much convinced that I'm going to get it sorted out next month at Horizon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich111s Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Mr. Knight - After looking at your red traces, I think I know what caused your 'scratch marks'... do you or your neighbours keep large cats such as lions? Or maybe you've been to Bodmin Moor and left your car unattended over night? Or maybe I need to take my pills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul_C Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Ive got a 'star' like that underneath my rear number plate. i think the heat from my exhaust did it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m.Woody Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 It is difficult to see from a pic ,but it does look like impact damage that has been repaired and is now showing again (impact may have been months or even years ago) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snapper Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 I have to agree with woody. It looks like impact damage to me. Previously repaired or some thing has hit the area and its taken some time for the effect to come through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pizzaboy Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Probably via some tosser reversing into you whilst your elise was parked and unattended. Bear in mind people slooooowly reverse...touch your front...then push push push. Its enough to cause fissures like the ones your front clam has.
