benkei Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Irrespective of if she indivated or not, SHE hit YOU. She was in the wrong lane, didn't check her mirrors or blind spot, then turned into your car - thus the damge on the SIDE on your car. I hope you got her details, and that she doesn't try and claim against you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you got her details, and that she doesn't try and claim against you! good job the police came, so its a witness. .. we got loads of photos anyway!, to be honest it isn't that big of a deal is it? if it costs me only 20 quid to repair or a new wing which i can find cheap, keeps every one happy! haha. but hell yes it was so annoying, i was laughing when we crashed cause it didn't feel real! because i only just got her back .

welshbuddy Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) well today, i finished early, so i though to myself i would tackle it myself, as i thought im going to go TRD wide front wings so, a repair by myself . so i got the wing and the skirt, the skirts were stuck on with some sort of black crap :S . ahh well. after i banged out the dents with my trusty hammer! used a rubber mallet really with a bunch of old rags so it was no hard hits coming through. got the shape back on the wing!! so, basically then i took my sanders out, used 5 different grades and wet n dry. tomorrow i will fill and smoooth, then sand when bone dry. do the process again. Then buy some silver spray untill i buy new arches ! all in all good day. Edited February 22, 2012 by welshbuddy (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
