Doncaster Rd Bingle

[DJR34]

damn....i was just in an accident. Basically the whole front of my car was pushed in as it was wet and i went up the back of the car in front.

im probably gonna need a new front bar and lights and such. but its not that bad. the bonnet needs to be repaired.

can anyone tell me of any good repair places around the eastern suburbs area? im in doncaster/templestowe.

any info would be greatly appreciated

[hippy]

thats why u should never drive close to people ... anyways good luck with fix .. don't get a dodgy job ... and i reckon sourcing spare parts on here is cheaper than anywhere ..

[Ant97GTR]

Sorry to hear that man......good luck with the repair. I grew up in Doncaster but never needed my car fixed. However my parents weren't so lucky......unfortunately I can't remember the name of the place but they can be found behind the old pizza hut/pancake parlour on donnie rd (theres a little side street next 2 the old pizza hut, take that then turn 1st right....u can't miss it on ur right hand side)

they did a top job....parents owned the car a further 4 yrs and never had a prob.

could try JR Auto in Box Hill....

[coco69]

hey chef, think i saw you on springvale road today?

around 1030, would that be right?

i was like... shit, thre goes my car....

but was stuck at a light and tried to hoon up and follow, but gone.

btw, where is JR auto in box hill? me and a mate were looking for some rice the other day, and we couldn't find it...

dan,

for jrauto you gotta go up station st from whitehouse rd.. then you take the next right (whatever its called) after carrington rd .. its about 3 doors up

[CR34TION]

jr auto... very bad idea

[DJR34]

what about hyper-tech in vermont? i know they can be a bit pricey. im gonna have to def get a new front bar. does anyone know if hypertech do repairs?

[Guest RedLineGTR]

dam...hope u were okay. Well the car will need some repairs..it might be a hassle to get some parts.

[predator]

naw, hypertech is a performance shop for serious stuff..

If you just want a new front bar, try jetspeed..or IQ Auto (see Front Bars thread).. For the other bits you'll need to find wreckers..

skyline33 (PM) generally has lots of bits and pieces.

DJR33: how bad is it? can ya post up a pik or something?

same thing happened to me not long ago, its a bitch i tell ya

[DJR34]

[DJR34]

[DJR34]

the front bar took nearly all the damage thank god. the front side panels went unscathed

[DJR34]

i def need a new front bar

[DJR34]

yet another pic

[DJR34]

last pic. im def gonna need some new parts too

[DJR34]

well thats all the pics. im gonna ring around tomoz about panel beaters. hopefully ill find a half decent one

[Jetdat]

i am sorry to hear/see this mate.....i was hit from behind last year(although not too bad) and i know how much it hurts...

i just wanted to say stay away from a Clayton panel beaters whom i dont wanna name here but will do in pm if you need...bastards drove me crazy when i trusted my car to them....

anyway glad you are ok and that the damage is not too bad...

good luck with the repairs.

[DJR34]

i dont plan on going to a clayton panel beater. i want something locally to me. the car is currently undrivable. it starts up fine and all that, but some of the fans punctured the radiator i think and whenever i drive, steam comes out. it was doing that as i drove it home. now im gonna have to get it towed to the repair place. more $ for me to pay.
