My skyline has been banged up the rear

[Guest]

Ohh. I am so frustrated my beautiful car has been rear ended on the weekend..

I was just starting to move after the traffic had slowed down, minding my business and BANG this guy rams into me at about 70 km/h..

I have been recommended to go to a couple of NRMA preferred repairers.

Could anyone in Sydney please let me know if they have used any of these repairers and let me know if they were good or not.

Premier Panel Beating (greenacre)

Cols Body Shop (west ryde)

Adams Smash Repair (kirrawee)

Thanks

Maybe you should PM me if you had a bad experience just in case

[silver gts-t]

mate 70km/h??

your car should be totaled!!

[Jago]

yea i don't think you would have walked away from that without any injuries anyway, up the back, side, or front. 70km/h is pretty fast (a fast speed to be bealted from i mean). If there were any cars infront of you, you probably would have been sent ploughing into them if you got hit by a car goin 70km/h

Vision Smash in Artarmon just did mine and they do NRMA I'm pretty sure. Car looks great and Harry really looked after me.

Vision also did a complete repaint on my GTR and has painted/repaired several SAU member cars.

9436 1299 and ask for Harry.

MC Racing Group did my car

damn, 70km/h, i hope your not too banged up because the car would be a mess after being hit at that speed, bad luck man...

my mum got hit today by a garbage truck not looking where its going (only at very low speeds) and it left enough damage to the side of her car, so i can only begin to imagine sights of cars hit by others going 60km/h plus, i feel for you... good luck with repairs

Hi everyone, thanks for the replies, yes I am ok, except I did have a bit of a sore neck aftward but it feels fine now.

I had just taken off so I was probably doing about 10km/h at the point of impact meaning closing speed was around 60km/h but yes my car is pretty mangled. Spare tyre is sitting up higher so I'm guessing the whole panel underneath is bent and needs replacing. BTW, I didnt hit the car in front.

Anyone used Premier Panelbeating? Looks like I might go there..

Prestiege smash repairs do a good job in sevenhills

i got my mum odyssey fixed there..

did a awsome job

even touched up sum bits and pieces

[fatz]

pics?

If you were hit at 60/70km/h your spare tyre wouldn't just be "sitting up higher"... The impact speed was probably a LOT less than what you think...

[raz0r$harP.UK]

If the tyre is sitting up higher might that not indicate possible chassis damage? Happened to my brother's Mazda a few years ago and they wrote the bastard off. I swear it could have been fixed..it was a good little car too.

Man, being hit at 70km/hr .... your chassis is gone buddy. I don't even need to see it to tell you that, has the NRMA dude inspected your car yet? Have you considered that this level of damage might mean it's a write-off?

lol dude my r33 is in there now... taking its time. cant wait to get it back.

Harrys a champ he fix u up for sure. but they arnt an nrma approved repairer, jack hildermans in artarmon are really good as well.

Nah I didnt consider it could be a write off... Damn, you might be right if they have to do chassis work it might write it off.. Hope not I love my car.

[Guest]

pics?

Yeah I'll get some pics done soon, cause I want before and after shots to make sure they fix absolutely everything I see wrong..

I'll post them when they're done.

Sure felt like 100 ks an hour but I know what you mean. I only say 70km/h because thats the speed limit of the road and it was open, and there was no skid marks and I didnt hear any skidding before hand just a Massive CRUNCH and then I put the brakes on again cause I was going to hit the car in front..

the boot floor is easily replaced as are the beaver panels

i doubt it would be a write off

[lwells]

NJ: Get your necked checked out (if you haven't already). I have heard of far too many cases where people have a sore neck, that is then "better" a day or two latter, only to later find they have serious damage to the top of the spine.

Sorry to hear about the car
