hey guys

over the week i had a huge car accident in which some f.ucka speeding took out my front end (front bar ruined , gaurds ruined, radiator stuffed , bonnet, pretty much did around 8grand worth of damage)

now since the dude didnt have insurance has left me in a very very tight situation.

i now need to repair the car with 2nd hand parts i dont know the extent of the damage as yet but definately im going to need a new bonnet , both guards and a front bar (all for a series 2 r33) thats as a minimum and then all the engine parts he may have ruined, damn f.ucka. as i cant really afford all this i only have two options

1. keep my car off the road and repair it over 4 months.

2. repair it using parents money and sell the car.

now i need to repair it because as all skyline owners know its so hard to part with something uve spent alot of time money and effort into.

so if any guys out there know ne places where i can get a front cut for a series 2 pretty cheap would be of much help

what parts are included in a front cut? just outa curiousity, im still spewing ova the fact that the other guy doesnt have insurance and ive only got 3rd party, which really screwed me up.

My Mate steve has a front cut for you.

call him on 0411 107 654 or 0433 119 390.

Best of luck and sorry to hear this has happened to you.

As nick said. o and commence legal action immediently or you willl get constant stupid drivers like him who have no insurance who think they can get away with it all the time.

if YOU have insurance, you notify the insurnance company, and let them handle it, they will take his a$$ down :rofl:

If you don't have insurance, then

go to a smash repairer, they can probably tell you the best attack (other than a lawyer). But you need to get a quote done, then send a letter of demand for them to pay.

then u wait x days, and send another....then if they still dont contact, you go to a...err...cop type person (not a cop tho) and they issue the request to thier face. then you take them to court.

there should have been witnesses - find them

u need to log it with police so you have a incident number

u have the argument "how else would i have this guys license number etc..plus these ppl saw the accident"

he will have to pay. it might take you 6 months, but yeah...

talk to a repairer they can give you more detailed info..i had to do it for mine, my insruance company handled it.

DaGr81,

a mate of mine was in a similar situation, except he was the one at fault.

He had NO insurance and NO rego. Rego expired a week before the accident!

The other parties involved did have insurance and just let their respective insurance companies do the chasing up for them.

It took few months to sort everything out, however his accident was complicated by some medical bills as an injury was believed to have been suffered by one of the drivers/passenger that was hit. By the sounds of things, no-one was seriously injured in ure accident???

re: Front cuts / spares, i get most of my parts from just jap in Kirrawee.

They've been pretty good to me so far.

Hope it eventually all works our for you.... sooner than later!

I reckon if you go ahead and do that, you won't get anything out of the guy. Talk to a few shops (ones that KNOW they wont get the work) and see what they say.

Maybe you can get a quote for a fix, then send him the bill, but actually get done what u really want.

why don't you wait until it's repaired before doing that...you gotta make sure the other party pays up before you modify it.
