Its disgusting what some people can/will do, same thing happened to the missus last week a young girl was riding her bike around the car park while her mum went into the newsagent (where the missus works) rode straight into the back/side of our BA fairmont mum comes back daughter tells mother what she has done, mum said "c'mon lets go" and just leaves its like oh well not my problem and its only that other shop owners witnessed it all and thats how we found out. Your car is a piece of art work and it sucks so bad that some "drop kick" has done that, i hope you find who has done it and maybe work out a payment plan atleast just something Good luck mate Cheers Longy
One of my fave Z's As bad as that is, it could have been so much worse. Sucks bad that they didn't apologise, but on a good note at least it's very fixable
yeah also sorry to see that.. you have a sweet lookin 300 there man! Just starting to make me wonder about ppl these days.. its much like theft to me.. like someone being inside your car messing with your gear. All the best with getting it all tidied up! Not sure about the police idea.. I had a commondore once.. and whole stereo pinched after they smashed the rear quarter window. Called the cops.. told em.. and even said there is blood on the glass if you want it.. they just said no.. we will record the incident though.. Anyways, good luck with it! Adam
GAME PLAN 1. Send ur paint code to EVERY panel beater & offer a reward if they find a car with ur paint on it. 2. Find the motherf*cker who did this. 3. Have a long hard talk to them about human decency. Or kick their ass. Or both. Dude that sucks some major dick. I hope you find the bastards who did this ay. Good luck with the repairs, and id call the cops and opt for insurance to fix the repairs. That way if you do find the prick who did it you can charge him for it.
In theory that sounds right but unfortunately it's not, in insurance terms any accident that they don't have anyone else they can get money out of counts as an 'at fault' accident for the policy holder, regardless of who's 'fault' the accident actualy was. If you have had rating 1 for a while you can usually ask about no claim bonus protection, it basicly means you can have the odd thing like this and not lose your no claim bonus.
Just looked at that again Eli ...looks low and if it's contained to just that region ie.. no damage to bottom edge of hatch or rear spoiler... I wonder if you'll be looking for a white Ford or Holden Ute!!?
Those rub markings are grey... It looks like someone did a U-Turn, thought they could clear my car, and didnt. My neighbours car is a Forester with a grey plastic front bar. I was parked across the road, the other side of the Subaru. Later when my neighbour got home, i checked his car, and although there are scratches on the left side of the bumper, there was no real damage, and no red paint... He was away for around 10 hours... but i can't just accuse him... I did go over and ask if they saw/heard anything, trying to read lying signals and body language, but didn't get anything... maybe im just clutching at straws, but my instinct is very suss... I'll just have to wait to talk to my panel beater and see what he's going to quote... either way... im thinking get it fixed, and maybe time to sell up.
I aggree..not much fun at the moment I know just give yourself a couple of days to get your head around things. Hopefully Karma will find a way of repaying the lowlife who did this. Cheers. Andy.
Like I just said... dont make hasty decisions. Two days ago you loved this car; Two months from now you'll have it back the way it was. Remember "illegitima non carborundum". DON'T LET THE BASTARDS GRIND YOU DOWN !! Hang in there mate Andy.
I think you are looking for a 4wd I would guess a bullbar is in the action there as well, At work I figure they would try for a new quater panel but I dont know if we can get these for the Z now If you are going for insurance you have plenty of photos so you have a good record of pre accident condition and can demand a top job. Good luck I know Insurance companies are a horror to deal with so stand firm.
yeah trav, and my neighbours have two vans, both with bull bars, but i cant see anything particular on them so cant blame... i just cant see it as a side swipe. its definitely a more focused collision, and my street is VERY wide.
Sh!T !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hmmmm, That needs to be fixed with a new panel NOT bog and a hammer. Claim the insurance and get it done properly. Thats 3K-5K+ of damage
I dont understand.... why do you now want to sell it? The damage is repairable and will look fine again once a new panel is fitted.
Fark that's facked. I have no idea what I would do. After all the hard work that went into this bEast. I just seen you a few days ago and it was just straigh up crazzzyyy looking. Sory bud. But we know she will be back to looking crazzy again. Good luck man.
he wont sell it, hes just having a sook ... once its all fixed up itll be looking schmiickkk again and he will fall inlove all over again :zlove:
