Just confirming that the hairdresser car is substantially waterproof at this stage. GT-R in the car hole safe and warm.

Strangley enough the only real arse hat i noticed on the freeway yesterday during the storm was a WRX driver cutting up the emergency lane...mmm typical lol.

My hilux got hit :)

New bonnet required ;)

My boss's Skyline is f**ked. Pretty much every panel is damaged, windscreen cracked, rear wing damage. Will be a write off. (As will his Fairlane, Corallo and BA Ute.)

A work colleague had three cars written off in the driveway and a tree fell on their house.

:)

I noticed 1 dent on my bonnet this morning on the way out to my 2 wheeled dak dak, will have a closer look at the line when i get home.

Woot, no hail in the hills (no power either) but tonnes and tonnes of rain... I'm honestly amazed that the 28year old porsche with its huuuge manual sunroof was completely waterproof!! Afaik, dad's fairmont got absolutely rooted.... Going to call Hyperdrive later and see if my GTR survived....

Reports that the roof collapsed at Alf Barbagallo motors onto the Ferraris and Aston Martins. ;)

Bardly, run down and take a pic :)

I am in Adelaide as of 8am yesterday morning and until this Thursday, I missed the weather but apparently skylights on my roof have smahed and flooded the place, nice. Also my dads BFII XR6 is battered the hell with dents.....

My GTR was cosy and garaged.

Had to go get food so took Porsche. Now 1 head light is out and wiper don't work. So crawling through the hills, barely being able to see and hitting huuuge puddles I didn't know were there was shit pants scary...

But, my damn car fixes itself! When I got home, still no power so thought I'd go to mums. Got into car, turned it on and wipers start randomly working!! Then all of a sudden, other headlight starts working!! Epic car, I love ya!!

I saw this big black lady running to a bus stop for cover when the hail came down really aggressive...

She didn't make it without a few fist size ice blocks hitting her back and shoulders lol....

Sorry I cant help but laugh bahaha She got hit hard by hail... Was like a war movie bahaha

(If your on SAU big black lady please forgive my laughter) lol..

I'm sorry to hear that some cars got damaged, hope you guys get it all fixed up soon!

Could of been worse... you could of been that big chocolate lady with dents in your back and shoulders :)

^ ha ha looks like the tunnel turned into a river.

Just driving around S. Perth now it looks like almost every parked up car has been ruined by hail. Some shiny beemers and mercs all ruined.

Got totally pwn'd. Just got back from the shops and got the shopping in and figured I'd better get the car in the garage. *Chunk* *Chunk* *ChunkChunkChunk*... Nooooooooooo!!!

All I could do was watch while the hail pounded my baby - alarm screaming out in agony. She now looks like a golf ball. Thankfully Just Car have agreed to cover it and are sending an assessor tomorrow. Fingers crossed for a new paint job - some of those dents aint getting pulled (like the ones on the a-pillar and front fender).

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
