When I was 17, I fixed my car's bumper with bandaids. I couldn't afford Hello Kitty bandaids, so it was never truly fixed

You know you got solid Mates when they not only facilitate you getting new wheels, but they fix the dent on it before they give it to you. good job guys!

every time james does something, he’s just so casual about it, while doing a stellar job. he’s honestly incredible. everyone needs a james in their life

Clearing up foggy headlights is like a cheat code to make any car look 10x better.

My girlfriend "accidently" bought an auction car i was looking at (for more than i was going to pay) when it arrived, it was absolutely busted. Somehow, my dad (a panel beater of 20 years, 20 years ago) took pity on me and did such an incredible job in such a short time. Really impressive how much they can fix

Imagine Wade's mate watches this video after receiving the car. Just 20 mins of Wade just screaming "THIS IS WHY IT'S EXPENSIVE" lmao. It reminds me of a dad who begrudgingly spoils his kids, but is secretly happy to.

Im gunna name my car after you Wade, its an 08 Civic

Tony scoring a DNF on the hill brings joy to my heart to compensate for being so high on fuel economy

If ya squint, it’s mint.  Great job guys.

This just in: two Australians yell at car for 23 minutes until shiny

20+ minute DankPods AND garbage time videos on the same day?? Wade, you’re spoiling us

James is a wizard. Most wizards use wands true, but a hammer is clearly an acceptable alternative.

this is the pure definition of born to be technician a, forced to be technician b

About 10 years ago I restored and resprayed a HQ ute from my parents farm. I was intent on doing everything myself, sanded it all back, disassembly etc. I got a local guy to start teaching me panel beating, after an hour of banging on a panel with a hammer, it ended up worse than I started, he walked over with a heat gun and many years of experience and fixed it in 5 minutes. He offered to do the rest of the panel beating for 5k and I instantly said yes. Bloody hard work. Much respect to the panel beaters out there.

7:54 is that the Bunnings spec methylated spirits? Good to see Tony didn't drink it all, the thirsty nugget.

I find it comedic that the channel that essentially started because of a polish nugget, and polish stuff keeps finding itself into the garage for some reason

A lot of cars have mismatched colors on three plastic and metal panels from the factory too. Many cars had bumpers painted separately at the factory.

Automotive detailing and automotive body work are the two most time-consuming and most finesse requiring extra services for a car there is. The cheaper you pay the cheaper the work you get

Seeing the use of sikaflex to hold that bumper on hurts me so much having previously worked in a panelshop. That stuff makes it so painful for the next poor bastard that has to work on the car lol
