NOPE, guess people dont have eyes anymore ????, and it was parked out from the building in a area completely free of other cars, and just out of range of security cameras in the parking lot :blink: , (you try to park away from other cars to keep dents at bay only for this to happen) alarm went off, and it alerted me. came to the front of shop and it was too late, scumbags were gone.

stupid since the place was really busy , someone had to have witnessed it ....beach rd is just too busy for nobody to see or hear the alarm .

Might be worth taking out an ad in the Messenger or Advertiser, frankly that's bullshit and if no one's got the balls to come forward and say what they saw.

My other car, a Aussie R31 had a tow bar ball put thru the front bar last year in a parking lot at the pub. a perfect hole in it of the ball and hitch,

and bounced off so many times the bumper is destroyed no paint, bent up to the sky and a few holes in it from others hitting it , have a new one off a wrecked car to put on it but its blue, not white..lol

ex is taking the car so its up to her to deal with it now

thanks Cara :down: I might take you up on that , 3500 was just the install labour,paint, bumper,tail light fiberglass piece. not including the steel bar under the bumper which another guy looked at , and its bent, not bad but bent still. he thought it might have been a trailer or a ute with crap hanging out that hit it, the imprint on the bumper looks like curragated metal of somesorts and punched a hole in it.

doubt I fix it stock, might just body kit it up instead????. just sucks, something else to fix that wasnt broken before. but at least its not as bad as that orange rolla, damn I would "insert threat here" the guy for doing that to my car.

Spotted my car getting owned in shopping center carpark :) I backed out of my angle park, got half way, woman in her Mazda 3 directly opposite me started backing out, so I stopped, she kept going, I put it in first and tried to get back in the park asap but didn't make it in time...most of it will rub off but now I got a nice little dent...

But on a lighter note, went to Exhaust Tech today and booked my car in, had a chat and saw a few nice cars, then went over to Wheelworx's new shop, had a look around, few nice cars there too.

bummer tom :)

car park accidents are usually 50 : 50 responsibility wise (unless she copped to being in the wrong, or you have witnesses in your favour).

hope it turns out well for u.

prolly not worth an insurance claim cos the excess would be moar than the repairs o_O

    • Yes. This engine cost a very large amount of money to build. It's a Frankenstein necessitating lots of custom parts and lots of fabrication and fettling to get things like big ends to clear the bottom of the bore, etc etc. The rods and bolts were supplied by the owner. Hence why the rods were Chinesium. Some lessons need to be learned the (very, very) hard way, apparently. I was aware of the stories going back about that far as well. I just wanted to see if the reality was as bad as the fear.
    • Looks great!  The problem with that brace is nobody can see it!
    • Hi and welcome. What are you planning to do to the car or will you keep it stock?

    • Heaps of historical info on this, a quick Google gave dates back to 2012, all talk about identification markings, dimples, shapes of mounting surfaces, washers, that are concave or something to match the fasteners mounting surface, which ARP states that if the washer, if it uses a washer in its application, isn't the right way around, it can cause premature failure,  even if it was torqued up correctly with whatever lube is meant to be used There is even talk about getting the bolts Xrayed to check the structure, one was about some builder getting multiple sets of bolts, having them Xrayed, and picking from those results Nowadays identical "looking" fake parts, in identical looking fake packaging are everywhere, with all the markings and stuff, the only way you know they are not legit is Xray or when they fail I assume if you don't want fake parts, and don't have a Xray machine handy, is to get them directly from ARP in the USofA, aftermarket rod and head bolts aren't something to take for granted  Imagine building a big dollar build only to find you lunch it because of an inferior fake fixture let go 😫
