paulr33 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 that doesnt look too bad i had a hit like that ages ago, was gone for 1 week 1 week is reasonable, they might have to pull the boot out a bit make sure you check if it aligns up properly when u get it back and also make sure the boot opens / closes properly Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/211481-tuf-732s-rant/#findComment-3738790 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 That sucks! Get it checked properly, you may need: - rear bar skin (S1 and S2 are the same) - rear bar reo - rear tail lights (if mounts are broken or rear plastic cracked) - rear "SKYLINE" fascia (if mounts are broken) - repairs to rear quarters, boot lid, and tail gate. May take time and a bit of work to do it properly. If it's not done right you'll keep having on going issues with water in your tail light indicators.

SKYL1N Posted March 22, 2008 Author Share Posted March 22, 2008 think youd be a lil more careful driving such a nice merc these are good tips, thanks everyone. i dont really have any idea :S im hoping to take it to "DT Panels" they have been recommended from a friend. hopefully they have easy access to all these parts Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/211481-tuf-732s-rant/#findComment-3738800 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Open the boot and check to see if the spare wheel is hard to pull out or tight in the well. If it is, the floor is crumbled and needs to be pulled back out.

Blaise Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Exactly the same thing, happened to me but I was at the lights! My quote was TOTAL $3,346.00 NOTES : THIS QUOTE IS FOR VISUAL DAMAGE ONLY FURTHER DAMAGE MAY BE FOUND ON DISMANTLE PARTS PRICES SUBJECT TO CHANGE! It looks almost exactly the same but just imagine, your big dent on the right! Such a horrible feeling!
