Smashed Into An Audi Tt Yesterday

[DogKnight]

I feel your pain mate. I lost it once when I was concerntrating. Also lack of experience I think. Only had the car 3 weeks, wasnt used to the power or rear wheel drive. Having bald tyres didnt help either. Lost it and took out a fire hydrant. Im the unofficial cause of stage 3 water restrictions. Lucky for me it was minor damage. I feel really bad about the amount of water lost though, the bloody hydrant was going for an hour. =(

PS: car was covered by full comp and is all good now. The sig pick is the side that was hit, front right. As you can see, you cant tell the difference. Now its got nice fat new tyres on it.

[Rekin]

you're paying that $7k yeah? or is insurance covering it?

[adam-__-]

I assume it's him/his parents paying for it. He only had 3rd party insurance.

[SKYL1N]

im paying for it

its a big blow

[Rekin]

hrmm are you sure its worth to pay $7k to fix it?

How much do r33 gts' sell for these days?

Might be better to sell the wreck and purchase another gts? as the car may never be the same after it has been repaired...

[SKYL1N]

i bought that 5 month ago for 13 k

i know i could buy like a shitty commo or something

but i love the car too much

its like

if your pet was sick.. and you could pay 2000 to make him better or 500 for a new pet

you wanna fix him

[R33silverS2]

you could probably make 4 -5k selling all the parts, then plus the 7k that you need to spend to fix it is around 12k which would easily get you another gts that has not been in a smash, or hold out and get a gtst.

my friend has same sort of front end damage, his mechanic told him to go to the wreckers to get a "front nose cut".. should include most of what u need, except bonnet, lights, and belt from what i remember.. but its hard to find nose cuts.. should cost $1k i hear.. but if u find it, it could save you money..

also the airbags cost a shitload to replace.. 2000 + i think..

[stolen_s15]

^^^^ Look into buying a front cut from someone who wants an engine/gearbox combo, or look for someone wrecking a 33.

Will save you mega $$$$$

[sillylankan]

dude, 7 grand must be brand new parts, find second hand parts or a nose cut, youl save thousands.

[SKYL1N]

the money isnt so important as much as getting the car back asap

plus i dont wanna be hunting down shit

i like the idea of

i give to man

man fixes

man calls me when i can pick it up

[sillylankan]

lol ok dude, if you wanna pay 7 grand to fix up a gts, go ahead

[naga]

lol bloody rich ppl!

oh well good luck with it
