Will It Ever End

[Pal]

Just got the skyline back from the panel beaters last week from a nice magna diciding to use my back end as a brake on old mandurah road about a month ago. This morning going down to get some cash out for a dyno day at in tune performance with the toyota guys, and a 70yo in a busted ass l300 toyota van decides to pull out of his parking bay just as i was passing. You guessed it, i now own a busted front passengers side fender. off the the panel beaters i go again. As the old saying goes NOT HAPPY JAN :(

spotted bnc32 there too, nice to meet you. made 280rwhp as well

lucky the it was an old person... otherwise they'd be in hospital... very unlucky mate.

[Pal]

no good getting angry. just happens some times. i know I've accidentally pulled out in front of someone or just not looked and almost hit someone. most of the time you get away with it , sometimes ya dont.

Wow, that sucks. Insurance?

l300 toyota van

L300 is a Mitsubishi.

[Pal]

my bad. damn thats two Mitsubishi's that have hit me. gunna have to watch out for that third one

yeh, he's got insurance so no problem there. seeing if its cheaper for him to just give me cash to fix. recon about $100 for the new (second hand) guard and about 300 to prep and paint. gunna see my favorite panel beater tomorrrow

Other plus side is more fresh paint for your at least 10 year old car.

Pal, At the rate your going you'll have a whole new car Bad luck mate, but it will get fixed.

[NA_Goodness]

Damn Mitsubishis!! Bad luck mate, hopefully it isn't too hard to fix. Is the car still drivable?

[Pal]

yeh, still driving it. will put up a pic tomorrow

[Pal]

well.good news, insurance has been approved, although not real happy with getting a second hand guard (although Shannon's has promised me it will be in perfect condition). looks like they will replace the headlight to as it has a small crack in it. dunno where they will find a chrome headlight from though. just have to wait for the parts to come in now.

Hey mate, I was the guy at the dyno day with the whit gtr, sux bout the hit but as long as nothing comeso out of your own pocket its not to bad

[Pal]

cheers mate, yeh, alot better than paying for it yourself.

Reminds me of my car when it got damaged by a Rev4, got struck on the same side & even your car's colour is the same as mine.

On the bright side, you are getting it repaired for free, like me
