Ok, so it's been a long while since I updated you all on what has been going on...........
Where do I start?
HIT & RUN
Well the guy who for a long while didn't own up to doing it was taken to court on the 14th Jan '09! Good news as this has been going on now for nearly 6 months. He pleaded GUILTY! £370 fine, £50 court fees and 7 points on his licience later and I'm going to get my £600 excess + expenses back
Unfortunately I still don't know for certain who did it, although I have a rough idea.
THE GARAGE
The go ahead was given back in September for the work to be done, so for now I would be claiming on my insurance. I spoke with a guy called Andy Merry who agreed to do the work. Heard he'd done a good job on other friends cars.
So looking a various sources I finally settled on what I was going have fitted. As I'd mentioned in previous posts I was looking at replacing the back bumper, front bumper and maybe getting a front mounted intercooler. Well I ordered the front bumper off Ebay, then picked it up from Blanford. Easy.
So I thought I'd do the same for the back bumper, but this came from a different source and needed to be posted. BIG mistake!
The bumper didn't fit properly and Andy Merry refused to fix it and suggested I go back to the supplier, who was having none of it. He told me that they could do it, but I would have to bring my car to London. Given that there was no way I could fit it in my Supra there was no way this was going to happen, so I decided to give it a go. Here is where the fun started!
Here is me a friend offering it up!
