jcbt Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Had a little issue on way to Japshow-accelerating up slip road and back end went and 360'd into crash barrier. Damage is to passenger side as per pictures. Most severe at rear qtr which looks to have damaged suspension as we'll. Will be contacting insurer tomorrow but was wondering if anyone knows a good supra accident repair specialist in Essex or Kent who I could recommend to my insurer as I'm sure any normal garage will try and suggest total loss territory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

little num Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I have a decent silver shell if you fancied doing a shell swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Sorry, to learn of this John, explains why we didn't see you today! Glad you and Chris are OK, as said, that is the main thing. Have a word with Alex (Inazone) as he was in pretty much the same situation a while ago and he managed to get the insurers to repair instead of writing it off.

tony tt Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Pm Supraloopy mate. Dave may be able to help with that bud. Facebook might be best I'm not sure he's on here much these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Budz86 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Bodywork doesn't look too bad guys, rear quarter should be fixable with a slide hammer and rivets. Probably just as easy to get a new rear bumper, but it may not need it. Suspension, who knows until you get it on a ramp.....my issue is the wheels! How could you ruin such a lovely set! Seriously though, glad you're both ok! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bailey Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Just looked under the car as well as I could, Top arm (wishbone) has cracked and totally seperated from the wheel hub. That explains why the wheel is wonky! N/S/R coilover looks okay from what I can see. Just need it up on a ramp too see what else could be wrong. I've had alot of generous PM's with free parts being offered if we need them. Cant thank you people enough for the support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dim Sum Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Sorry to hear about this, saw this briefly on Facebook and thought I check on here. No matter what both of you is fine, that's the main thing. Hope you can sort this out asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
