Going to need parts verry soon.

Post by aza013 »

Ok well first thing pics will be up as soon as I can get onto the computer.
Now as of about 14:30 today my car is a foot shorter.
Due to a bad event my car got a nip and tuck on it's asss :(
The good thing is that my insurance company had all the paper work faxed to my smash repair shop befor I even got there to talk to them about it :lol:
the other good thing it was not the front of the car :D
OH and NO it's not a right off so no seegulls hehehehe.

So I may have to put up a shopping list of things I need to fix if the work shop can't get them.

First thing what is the cost for new tail lights?
I'm going to look around but if any one knows post it up thanks.

Mate I feel your pain.

However at least now you will get brand new rear paint job.

I was at a stop when she hit me about 60k/h hit me at.
Good news is the bootlid is fine :D
but every thing under it looks like it needs to be replaced.

Now how did it hapen:-
well the traffic was stopped due to a police car going the other way came over our side due to traffic.
We all stopped, I had almost a full car length in front of me. The young girl told me she was looking to see where it the police/Ambon/fire truck (unknown at the time) was coming from, then seen that we had all stopped but to late.
70k zone with about 10m to stop in = bang.
Funny thing was I was stopped with time to look around and see what the hold up was then look in the mirror to see her hit the breaks. When I seen the car dip and then the car lockup I dropped my head and said "oh sh*t hear we go" then crummp.
Got both cars off the road then did all the paper work and I took a sh*t load of pics.

Ahhh .. You still with LSV... I ditched them this year.. They didn't offer pay by the month/quarter anymore ... :(

They are a great mob, but are starting to head away from the Import market... So would not be surprised if you see your policy go up at renewal to discourage you from using them ...

I just renewed a month ago and the price went down and pay out figer went up :D
But you are right they are not taking on any more import cars.

its a bummer to as they are so fast with every thing. I got off the phone with them yesterday and then went to the panel shop and they allready had all the paper work faxed over that they needed to start the job and they where hanging around out side for me to get there.
