cheekymonkey Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Some of you may recall I had an accident a couple of months ago that bashed in my rear quarter and bumper. Got an estimate to have it fixed, new bumper and tap out the wing, new spat etc, no big deal. However I've just been in the boot, and internally it looks like the metal has been pushed up slightly, so the polystyrene bits don't fit in properly any more. It's hard to tell what's going on from the pictures but I really don't know if this sort of thing can be fixed! What do you reckon guys? It seems silly that this would be a write off situation as I've been driving the car for two months, hell it's even won a trohpy at the Pod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwayne Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 is your tyre wearing even and does your tailgate shut etc? it honestly doesnt look that bad to me at all mate but i would still get it straightened out cos just knowing it was there would bug the hell out of me.

Ian R Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Best bet is to pop it in to a local body shop see what they say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheekymonkey Posted August 1, 2007 Author Share Posted August 1, 2007 Yep going to get it seen to shortly, so hopefully all will be fixable. The boot does shut but not quite lining up to the wing as well as it did, nothing too major and tyre wear is even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibrar Jabbar Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Chasis leg doesn't look as if it's been touched the small section of the rear floor pan looks creased, may also need a back panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But... fixable yes? The word "crease" always scares the willies out of me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Doesnt look bad TBH - get it in for an estimate. Should have been spotted while the car was being repaired. I would be asking questions there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
