toyotasuprauk Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Cheers mate! I'm tied up Saturday - but howabout Sunday ? Or maybe Friday ... as I can drop it off for spraying. You really want to get it sprayed on the car so it can be blown into the surrounding panels else with it being red you might notice a slight difference in colour. Sorry if you already know that but it sounded like you were going to get it sprayed then fit to the car later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarkey Posted January 17, 2006 Author Share Posted January 17, 2006 Cheers for replies guys .. apprieciated! The drivers door was facing the road. But the car slots are allocated at 45 degree angle. Mine was at the end. So I think it's been hit by a vehicel reversering. Footprint ? Not sure about that. I don't think I've pissed someone off. Yeah Toyotasuprauk .. I never thought of that! I'm up at Phoenix on Saturday .. and hopefully we can sort something out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angarak Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Try http://www.thedentman.co.uk, might be cheaper than gettting a door, especially if you have to respray it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey Posted January 17, 2006 Author Share Posted January 17, 2006 Cheers for the link bud. Typical dents we remove are the type acquired in supermarket car parks where someone has opened their door against yours or a trolley has rolled into your car, usually creating a dent about the size of a fifty-pence piece and where the paint surface is undamaged I'll send them that picture .. and we'll see. Hopefully, if push comes to shove we can source a new door. Cross fingers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Ahh for feck sake. Sorry to hear this mate. Hopefully you find the culprite. An alternative method would be to blame them all. Knock on all of their doors and tell them someone saw them do it. Maybe one of them will crack. The ones that don't, just go around later, and tell them that the person who saw them must have been mistaken and apologise. Then report the one that did it to the police for fleeing the scene of an accident. Unless they're Camilla Parker Bowles they should get in the shit at least.

Prof. Monkey Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Yeah .. must've made quite abit of noise too. I have an idea who might be responsible .. only because the car parking slot I was in is opposite a car parking slot that is owned by ... a 4x4 owner! Who has recently moved into a flat 10 meters or so from that her car park. Guessing here, but she's reversing out .. high vehicel .. low car ... scrunch!!!! Dont forget its an offence not to stop if you caused an accident, even just to give details. I have the facility to run the paint under a mass spec, to confirm the paint is yours if needed.

Scoboblio Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 really sorry to see this, w***ers. I suppose it's another side effect of the high insurance times - people are more likely to simply leg it because they'll get their balls cut off by the insurance company if they don't, and know they can get away with it Hope you get the damage sorted quickly.

Clarkey Posted January 17, 2006 Author Share Posted January 17, 2006 I'm not happy .. but shit happens - as the old adage goes. It could've been worse. Just put it down to experience and try park the car alot closer to the front-door .. instead of only 15ft away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarkey Posted April 8, 2006 Author Share Posted April 8, 2006 My car now looks undented! Sourced a door from Chiefgroover. The door was shipped over from Ireland for a very small fee ... Big thanks to Terry for help sorting that one & fitting my T-valve. I would've just fcuked it up! Now - ithe door is fitted & sprayed. And the door didn't even need blending ! So, thanks to Colin Breed from Sapphire (next to Phoenix) for spraying & fitting. Well chuffed. And finally - again thanks to Phoenix. Always a pleasure doing business with Mark. Though - dunno why some people won't make him a cup of tea ? Isn't 1.3 - 1.4 Bar great ? I'm going to ween myself off driving the car daily - when I move into my newly purchase flat .. so I won't get bored with it And be tempted to upgrade the performance. Thanks guys!!
