続・フェンダー交換

昨日の続きを改めて…。

部品倉庫(と言いつつただの納戸w)からスペアのフェンダーを引っ張り出してきて、一人黙々と装着。

しかし何か変だ。インナーフェンダーが付かない。ネジ穴が届かない??

車体下から這い出してきて、ちょっと遠くから左右を見比べてみたら、片方だけ下膨れになっとった。

右だけ下膨れ…
右だけ下膨れ…

なんだこりゃ。バンパーよりの部分だけ下側が広がってたのか?確かにバンパー付ける時になんか角度が合わなかったけど…。

保管中に歪んだのかな?1号機の残骸のはずだけど、1号機に付いてた頃から歪んでたのかな??

ある意味オーバーフェンダーだけど、普通延長するのは上側だろうが…。

このままではアンダーパネルも付かないし、インナーフェンダーやたぶんリップスポイラーも付かないので、ムギュムギュ押してそれっぽく戻してやった。

修正後

やれやれ。ムギュムギュやる過程で、フェンダーのフチ(リップを固定するネジ穴のあたり)が割れちゃったけど、気にしないことにする。

ていうか、これ、わざわざ交換する意味あったんだろうか…?

  • Hi there! I am a ST206 owner from Hong Kong, sorry I do not know much Japanese but I searched “カレン 左フェンダー” on google and found your blog. My Curren has been sitted under a tree for over a year by the previous owner and I wanted to raise it from dead! Could you please let me know where I can find “カレン 左フェンダー” in Japan, better in white colour like yours? Also do you know this front bumper -> “https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/v507496017” will fit on Curren? Please let me know I will wait for your reply!

    • Hi Lim-san.

      Recently, it is hard to get the Curren’s parts, I think…
      If I look for it, I will use Yahoo Auction or used parts site (e.g. http://www.recojapan.com/).
      By the way, this fender is the remains of my first curren. :-p

      The bumper you found is probably TRD Sports Curren.
      (e.g. https://autos.goo.ne.jp/used/detail/700050081130170508001.html)
      You found a good one!

      I wish you’ll restore your Curren successfully. Good Luck!

      • Really appreciated for your reply! I rather prefer the front lip of your Curren, I think its “HIRO Body Kit” right? I can’t find any of those on Yahoo Auction… but on some Russian website, tried to contact the seller but no reply at the moment…
        On the other hand, I really want to know if you could find another carbon fiber bonnet for Curren like yours? I think my Curren is the only one running in Hong Kong so the parts are very rare here…

        • Yes. This lip is “HIRO”.
          Mmm, official website has gone? The maker went bankrupt?? I have not seen much in the auction recently…

          My carbon bonnet is semi-order made. Over 10 years ago, a shop made only 10 bonnets. I have the 1st of them.

          Today, another shop seems to make a carbon bonnet for Curren. Check the below.
          https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w37483476
          They have 3 type of bonnet.
          – Carbon (Clear paint)
          – Carbon (Black gelcort)
          – FRP (Black gelcort)

          • Its so hard to find HIRO front lip… I can only found a in Russia. So I am thinking to buy “Okuto” one I think its in Okinawa, similar to “Varis”. To link below:
            https://auto-style.jp/cores/ItemDetail?cmId=717999
            But still asking for the shipping cost to Hong Kong…
            And the bonnet looks nice! I will think about it (shipping is so expensive….)
            Thank you!

    • Additional information.

      ‘White color’ of Curren has two type. Be careful.
      – Color No. 049: white pearl mica (ホワイトパールマイカ)
      – Color No. 040: super white 2 (スーパーホワイトⅡ)

      My Curren is 049.

  • (This is reply to http://farine.orz.hm/~tapo/blog/?p=5263#comment-17762)

    The size of aero parts is large, so the shipping will be higher…

    I found a example of “Okuto” user.
    http://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/797534/car/676867/3552144/parts.aspx
    He said, “Reasonable, but fitting was so-so…”

    Now, there is few maker makes aero parts for Curren.
    Using these parts as materials, arranging, you can finish your special Curren!

    • たぽsan!

      Its been awhile since your last reply!
      During the time I have the fender, rear bumper and HIRO front lip (YES! My friend found one new posted on yahoo auction and I won it!). Now waiting for the front lip to be arrived in Hong Kong. I will definitely post the after-photos here:D

  • Hi Lim-san!
    Congratulation!

    I’ll be waiting for your photos.
    Please send mail, or upload to other photo site and tell me the URL.

    • Thank you!
      I just realized that your front bumper has been cut for the front lip’s air tube!

  • Yes.
    That is air duct for brake.
