if they think your quote is too high and refuse to pay it, though. However, unless it's ridiculously high they will likely just pay for wherever you want to take it and not bother with contesting it.

soooooo like Micolour? :P

To my knowledge you can have anyone you want repair it anyway. You're not held to ransom by their insurance company or having choice of repairer on your own policy. It's not your fault if the other party that hit you has cheaped out on their insurance or not.

Hence you can have it repaired wherever you want and you can refuse their company's quote / place of repair. Their insurance company do have the option of settling it in VCAT if they think your quote is too high and refuse to pay it, though. However, unless it's ridiculously high they will likely just pay for wherever you want to take it and not bother with contesting it.

That Birds advice. Cheers mang, will call them now

Strong recollection of 2004 legal studies

soooooo like Micolour? :P

I'd try for it! Worst case they say no and you waste a drive to Dandy. I do think you have slightly more bargaining power as the third party to the accident.

lol yeah that guy was like having the KKK side with your argument.

That OP tried calling me like 11ty times after I SMS'd him yesterday. What a stalker kunt.

Friend of Captain Will by any chance?

Not expecting it to be done soon, I'm aware it is Christmas time

Strong aware

When my excel got rear ended, I had to go with the repairer they said because I was only third party, but if it was full comp I'd take it wherever I wanted and the insurance company has to worry about it.

I did get a free loan car though, corolla beast

Conversely, you also don't have to be satisfied with their repairs and can contest that. Remember legal studies Ric; the law seeks to restore the status quo. If things aren't the way they were before (and you wouldn't even recognise me anymore), you have the right to challenge it until you are satisfied.

Oh and get a hire car for free out of the fkers too.

fuuarrrkk Birds just took it to the next level with the free rental request haha

but as everyone has mentioned; it is not your fault the accident happened, so you can get it fixed where ever you please.

Tell the person to open an insurance claim with their insurer and to give you the claim number.

Then you take that claim number and stroll on over to Micolour.

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
