Dnk Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Like anything youve just got to know what your doing but think i'd have drawn the line at fixing the bumper fair play to you for even thinking about it let alone doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRACIE_LOU Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 Still trying to sort my bumper out and who is actually covering the cost... as everyone now seems to be passing the buck (typical).... Out of curiousity can you tell me how much it would have cost to fix the original damage that the garage done? I will post pic... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRACIE_LOU Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 In the middle picture you can't see it properly and i don't know how to draw circle around one of the cracks as you can't see it properly.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezz Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Still trying to sort my bumper out and who is actually covering the cost... as everyone now seems to be passing the buck (typical).... Out of curiousity can you tell me how much it would have cost to No one is 'Passing the buck'. Your bumper was damaged by our MOT station while your car was on thier ramp. They wouldnt cough up so we did. YOU took your car to a bodyshop we recommended where the damage was repaired, and we were invoiced for it. We didnt carry out the repair, so have told you to contact the guy that did. Whats the problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats the problem? Have to agree if thats the case. Thats not passing the buck, the repair has not been carried out properly, its now down to the bodyshop. You can't very well pay for a repair then blame yourself when it cracks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRACIE_LOU Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 No hold on a minute i'm not bieng arsey, and i hadn't named any names jezz as not to get bad feeling.. i have never blamed QSD in the slightest and steve knows i have been very amicable as it was never his fault.... I have never once in this thread said who done anything i had kept names out... At the end of the day my car was damaged.. we took it to the guy steve recommened to be fixed... and now the cracks are reappearing... the guy is going to re-do it which is fair enough.. but what happens if in another 2 months times the cracks reappear again... steve originally said he would cover it on his insurance now he states he wont.... so who is going to be out of pocket then. Any of you that has their car damaged thru no fault of there own would feel the same... as i said i am not blaming qsd and never have!!.. I don't know where i stand on this i just don't want to be the one to have to be paying out for something that wasn't my fault! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not fussed about naming and shaming QSD, hence I responded. Pete is usually spot on, specially with the fibre glass stuff. He makes new bodies for £1'000'000 classic race cars, which is why we were surprised when you told us about your crack. () I'm sure it will be all good this time, probably but a plate behind it and drill it as some have already suggested on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNT Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I know exactly where you are coming from. Initially the garage that did my work were all up for putting it right but became less inclined each time I took it back, eventually he told me it was pointless redoing it because it was just going to reappear. I've had to accept the cost now of putting it right be am free to go where ever I want now to get it done properly. Never again I tell you! Its really taken the shine off of the car, i'm sure the love will come back once its fixed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
