so ah have ah question? where to underwash and engine wash?. i only know of 2 places in trinidad and one i never tried and the other one i have used but i find their work is medioca

mrboxman · Posted: Fri Jun 08, 2007 10:38 am Post subject:

there are many places all over T&T where u can get that done
u can do it yourself even
where are u located?

Boxman... u get thru with something?

Hog... there's a place on the eastern main rd between UWI and Royal Bank. They do all of those services. Just don't let anyone power wash your engine with all those sensors. They use a sponge with a degreaser and then wash it off.

P.S. Are you really going to underwash with this kind of inclement weather?

Hog... I understand ... get rid of that salt/sand asap. I usually do my pickup on the EMR close to UWI. There's a guy call Charlo, I've never had any problems with him.

sweeks, yeh boy i hopin to get a b2500 its in excellent condition, TBP blue, 18's very low mileage, 4X4 and its for a decent price too 106,000 and has a private owner.

The mazdas works nicely. One of the faster pickups...they pull nice and rides comfortably. I almost bought one.

If not maintained properly they tend to overheat though.... They're also stolen regularly for parts.

Is it powered ? ABS? AirBags? Chrome bumpers? Flare fenders? Just a couple things for you to consider if you're into these features.

Oh fellaz i looking for a Tailgate for my L200. Can Anyone Source one for me or direct me to it. Or if you fellaz have an idea of how much it might cost.

I want to paint over soon and my tailgate has a dent on the inside which kinda warp it, so i figure it's better to change the whole thing. Twisted Evil

Also what is the Average price i should pay to re-paint the L200?
Looking at same green and silver. Twisted Evil

Just like was hinted months ago.
