- I really liked this color, so I bought another Acura RDX Aspec AWD. This one doesn't have the red interior but other than that, it is pretty much the same as the last one. The damage is a little different so let's get into this job and see just what it will take to get it back on the road.

Your videos are very theraputic to watch. No annoying royalty free music, no time lapses, no bull, just showing us how you repair stuff is just satisfying to watch.
No time lapses? Scott edits them so beautifully (brake jobs w/ 1 hammer strike, spot weld drilling) you don't even notice them.
@@vibrolax Yeah but it's not annoying. Other People do it for the full clip.
@@joshdevdoss9041 I was just making a little joke. Scott is a master with a hammer and chisel as well as the video editor.
@@vibrolax Lol, I agree...
We need bloopers reel and best of vehcor screams for New. Year
I wish there's a Vehcor collision shop in EVERY state of America.
There's only one Mr. Spotty, so there can only be one vehcor.
A savvy marketing team could sell Vehcor franchises nationally and internationally and make a bundle. #ExpandTheBrand #TakeMassiveProfits
Me too!
@@RealAlLePagei doubt Scott would want to tarnish the reputation he’s built…. With him in Chicago and franchises all over there would be no Quality Control
We could always clone Mr. Spotty and Scott. And have vehcor dominate the world.
I’m simply amazed at what insurance companies consider a “write-off” … Surely the repair cost on this is nowhere near the replacement cost… Oh well… at least it keeps our favourite CZcamsr in business and keeps us entertained
If the insurance loss payout minus auction proceeds is less than insurance repair/rental payout, the vehicle gets totaled. Then Scott pays the pizza girl.
@@vibrolax Nope.
Good one Scott, looking forward to seeing this one put back on the road...
Thanks, it will be there shortly!
Another great Friday with a vehcor video. Thanks Scott and a safe and Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to: Scott, Pizza Girl, Afternoon Crew, the Supervisor, Mr. Spotty, and all the assorted Gnomes. I hope you enjoy your holidays in the "land of corruption and rust"! From a dedicated subscriber in rust-free North Texas!
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
To the whole team, from West Texas : Feliz Navidad. @@vehcor
I appreciate the loud bang when you send stuff to the pile. That is therapy for me. Thanks.
You are not the only one! 😂 it is the sound of victory after fighting with parts that don’t want to come off.
Yes Merry Christmas all 🎅🤶
I just finished rebuilding one of these for my wife, awesome cars. Hers is a 21 a spec that was hit right in the driver door
Not that I've EVER questioned Scott's talent or ethics but the decision to replace that entire pillar versus finding a way to shim that hinge mount proves his work is top notch. A lot more work for no visible benefit. Well done!
It's good video Friday ! Merry Christmas Scott and Family .
Still makes me smile every time you reverse off the trailer scott, 😊
Fresh meat yay... all I wanted for Christmas.
Happy Holidays to you and the Pizza Girl, and of course The Supervisor, and thanks as always.
Looking forward to seeing it back on the road. Have a Great Christmas and a Happy New Year
This is the channel i have been searching for. I love the straight repair, no bells, no whistles, and love the content. Keep up the good work.
Love those RDX models....looking forward to the full build.
Your videos are awesome Sir! Entertaining but honest.
I always get my dull razorblades at Bobby and Whitneys used blade emporium. Been kinda hard to buy since 2012 for some reason.
Happy Holidays to you & yours & wishing all of the best for the new year 😁 ! PS. I always watch your videos & really enjoy them & your knowledge 😛 ! Again Thanks !
Good one Scott. At least it moves now and hopefully turns out great.
I definitely recommend Scott's body shop repair to anyone. Thumbs up approved!
Nice start on this one! As all can see...this one is proceeding quite
acura-tely! Merry Christmas!
Hey vehcor . I used to go there . Thanks to you now i know they shut down. I used to get supper deals there and sometimes freebes . Well i guess life goes on!!!by the way i always wait till the next educational video from you . Happy holidays!!!
Thanks Scott.
You wore gloves.
Merry Christmas, to you and the fam.
Looks to be an interesting rebuild. Come for the building knowledge, stay for the sarcasm. Merry Christmas to you & yours from me & mine.
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
Out of all Acura cars, that SUV is my favorite. I am looking forward to see how you bring back to life this one. Thanks for sharing. Happy holidays to you. 👍
The MDX Type S is currently my favorite in the line up but this is way more practical and easier to sell. Happy holidays to you as well!
love your one liners
Scott, Merry Christmas to you and yours, especially the "Pizza Girl!" Be blessed from Rockingham, NC. PS: Love your videos...🎅
Unloading screaming is best!! Enjoy your work ethic out of all, your face expressions are spot on too!
ThNK YOU. Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
Hi Scott, Merry Christmas 🎄 🎁 to you and your family!
Thanks for the video Scott.
Any time!
Thats a nice Acura, again you make the work on it look so easy hehe Big Up!
Merry Christmas Scott. Thanks for all the videos and humor.
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
This is going to be an interesting build. I'm surprised by how easy it is to peel the metal away while you were trying to pull out that area. Thanks for your videos Scott Merry christmas to you and your.
Hello Scott , Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
Always enjoy your content Scott . Your knowledge and attention to detail is spot on . I’m not a body man , but I know a craftsman when I see one . I’ve worked in construction for 25 years . I’m also one of those types that can fix just about anything. Body work is definitely not something I’m good at . Really shows how much experience you have at what you do ! Merry Christmas 🎄

That's very impressive Scott. You know cars better than people who build them. My hat's off to you. 🇨🇦
Great job as always Scott, Merry Christmas to you and your family. MT.
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
Love watching your videos 🤙🏽 Great sense of humor 💯👍🏽 😂
Coming together faster then the last Acura 😎👍🏾
Merry Christmas and happy new year Scott. Thanks for all the entertaining hours you gave this year
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
Thank you for the Christmas Present. I follow a bunch of channels but yours is one of my favorites. Hope you and yours have a WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS. I'm staying home because I have good sense so I won't be driving through Illinois to see my SIL and nephews for the holidays. Thanks .
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
On the insurance paperwork, he said I was all over the road before I managed to hit it……😂😂😂😂😂
😂
thanks for your videos this year, your humour just seems to hit the spot although i'm never quite sure after if i feel cleansed of a little filthier for them, perhaps a bit of both - wishing you Scott and your family and Mr Spot and the gnomes a great Christmas and festive season
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
Scott….you are an absolute master….kind regards to you, have a great Christmas 🎄 and a happy new year, Mark from the U.K. 🇬🇧
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
So glad to see that you are taking safety more seriously young man 🥸
Yes, those rubber gloves have saved my life countless times! 😂
We've discovered Scott's Kryptonite.....CV axle grease!And maybe it's just me bur the way that wheel just split in two-it looks to be paper thin.Thanks for the vids,may you have a Merry Christmas and a safe and properous New Year!
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team! All new wheels are designed to break like that to keep them from crushing the passenger’s feet in an accident. It is actually quite heavy though.
Want to wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and happy new year Scott

Hi vehcar awesome video man you just dam good😊
Merry HOHO and a happy New Years.
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team and a happy new year!
Love the Apex blue, but dislike the red interior very much. I sent an airbag module out to some place (not the one you used) and they sent it back saying it couldn't be reset. Had to find an identical one at the junkyard. Sort of a pain to find the exact match.
loving it tons worth!!
Acura RDX, one of my favourite cars
Great video,another nice build,you are the man.😎😎😎👍👍👍
Thanks!
Hmmmm Scott making things pretty. Next the supervisor will be wondering around with pink bows in her hair and the shop turtles will have manicures.
Awesome video mister. 🌲🌲🌲
Well the supervisor does have a bow. I guess it is the shop turtles, turn next! 😂
Merry Christmas Scott
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
You sure know your shit!! Great videos as always!! Thank you!!
Thanks for the video Scott. Merry Christmas to you and the crew, and may your Xmas stocking be overflowing with haters tears, this festive season.
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
Great work
Very therapeutic video 😂 also gives me a good look on how to fix the damn washer tubes behind the fender that were chewed up by rodents on my RDX!
Merry Christmas Scott, and to all watching
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
Hey Scott God Bless Stay Safe Keep Up The Good Work Have A Merry Christmas a Happy and Blessed New Year !!!!!
Which god?
Man you are an RDX pro🎉
Merry Christmas Spanky
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
There's Magic and More Magic, but neither is anything next to your experience. May you be healthy and happy in 2024.
RDX awesome car😊 thanks for informative video)))
Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
Watching you package the airbag and seatbelts: “Somebody’s been here before!”
Sweet car, i believe the engine on these are the turbo k20 used in the newer Type Rs with different tuning and probably a smaller turbo as well. Nonetheless a very reliable engine with lots of power potential
Merry Christmas

thanks for sharing
My hands were covered with warts from handling hydraulic fluid in the Navy. They were ugly and getting them off was painful. Years later, as a mechanic, I was happy as a pig in slop when they came out with the exam gloves and the mechanic's gloves. Say what you want about them, but even more than 25 years after I left a 22+ year mechanic's career, I'm still happy for the "b*tch mittens."
Great video as usual Scott. Cant wait for the next video. Hope yo had a great Christmas and hope you got something nice from the pizza lady. Lol....
I remember that Victory Auto wreckers commercial. lol, Eagle man commercial too. Crazy
“Wow, look at those low rates!” 😂 Don’t forget the Empire commercial! 588-2300
Merry Christmas to you and pizza girl 🎄😁
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
They did a great job on that wheel.
I have seen all sorts of bent , broken and shattered wheels , but never one split down the middle like a sliced bagel.
Thanks Vehcor.
Love the new tool! Name Plate Remover 5000™
It is useful as well as therapeutic! 😂
Most excellent....again👍
2 things I think was wrong with this video. No supervisor shots and no pizza. Other wise great vid.
happy holiday
In indiana, we call that a major highway. Instead of potholes, we use gravel.
good video , thanks
A very good video..Thanks
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
I knew that I knew you from somewhere you were Hongkong phooey it’s the kungfoo grip that gave it away, sorry but now you’ll have the autograph hunters chasing you. Happy Christmas when it comes Scott to you yours 👍🏻🏴
Gawd I miss doing that kind of work ...
also, that magic eraser is not on your Amazon store. (Angular tread shape)
Merry Christmas and a Happy New year Scott. I do enjoy your craftsmanship and wit.
Merry Christmas from the Vehcor team!
Best scream yet!!!
Both volume and duration! 9.2/10 😂
2:20 and here I thought split rims were only for large trucks and tractors! I see they're making their way into the SUV segment!
They outlawed them and people are still using them! 😂
Thanks for the video. Wondering where you get the metal for the part that you cut out where the fender and the door meet.
Hopefully FedEx doesn't totally destroy your mail...Thoughts & prayers Scott, thoughts & prayers!
that damage is exactly how my Civic Si looked liked just that the rim fully cracked and pushed the floor in where my left foot that was on the clutch and my foot ended up on the gas pedal
The scream still makes me laugh every time!😂
I love your videos.
I wish there was one in Australia
