Pal Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Just got the skyline back from the panel beaters last week from a nice magna diciding to use my back end as a brake on old mandurah road about a month ago. This morning going down to get some cash out for a dyno day at in tune performance with the toyota guys, and a 70yo in a busted ass l300 toyota van decides to pull out of his parking bay just as i was passing. You guessed it, i now own a busted front passengers side fender. off the the panel beaters i go again. As the old saying goes NOT HAPPY JAN :( spotted bnc32 there too, nice to meet you. made 280rwhp as well Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/230732-will-it-ever-end/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pal Posted August 15, 2008 Author Share Posted August 15, 2008 well.good news, insurance has been approved, although not real happy with getting a second hand guard (although Shannon's has promised me it will be in perfect condition). looks like they will replace the headlight to as it has a small crack in it. dunno where they will find a chrome headlight from though. just have to wait for the parts to come in now.

Mayuri Krab Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Reminds me of my car when it got damaged by a Rev4, got struck on the same side & even your car's colour is the same as mine. On the bright side, you are getting it repaired for free, like me Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/230732-will-it-ever-end/#findComment-4079493 Share on other sites More sharing options...
