Why Dont People Look When They Reverse?

[Burns]

If she had looked at all she would have seen me. She just slowly reversed 3m turning a little as she did straight into me. I was sitting in the car honking my horn as she did it.

Luckily it’s just the front ¼ so it should be easy to replace but getting the paint to match will be a pain.

She will pay you right?

I think youll need to charge her for a front quater/inner gaurd, repair to the rim, bonnet, spraying, youll need a new front bar too (maybe sell me your old one??)

On another note, your car is drivable now?

[AlexCim]

Oh, btw

ColourCo panels, he did a repair job for my celsior when the front bar was smashed in shipping. Great matching for a car that was white with white pearl with a blue pearl overspray...

In mitcham.

If you have comprehensive insurance & you got the details of the other driver, you just call up your insurance company & make a "not at fault" claim. It doesn't cost you a cent, you don't loose your no claim rating & the insurance company chases the other party up for the damages.

I have a mate who's going thru this at the moment with a beautiful HT Monaro. this silly Bit(h backed into his door while he was at the servo. It's next to impossible to get a good door for them now, but yeah he's got his insurance company to sort it all out for him

That's exactly what you should do. And any good place should be able to match it up 100% as well - I used browns down here in Richmond a few years ago with my metalic grey NXR, and it was a perfect job - you couldn't spot which panel they had done (and it was the same as yours, someone had backed into me).

Burns I like your seats! What are they?

[Bl4cK32]

I feel your pain. I was at my mates place, and his neighbour reversed into my car.

Thing is my car was in plain sight across the other side of the road, and she would have walked past it to get to her car....

[Burns]

I will make her pay but she dosnt want to. She wouldn't admit liability calming I shouldn't have been behind her and was a bit reluctant to give me her detailes. I know a few good panel beaters and have full comp insurance but I might not be able to organise it for 3 months.

AMS the seats are East Bear R34 GTR seats.

[AlexCim]

LOL, reversing is pretty much the person reversing liability anyway. THEY were the ones moving, therefore, they are at fault.

I thought women were more than qualified to use a mirror.
