wkdtime Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 was on my way home from central London on sunday night, some car racing past clipped my driver side rear and drove off, did not get the number plate! Anyways have a look at the damage guys, and let me know what am i looking at i.e, do i need a new pannel? can it be sorted? how about the door? baring in mind the car is going for a respray and having side skirts put on to. How much are the rear quater pannels? the door alignment is fine i think, its the rear pannel that has been pushed in, no creases though. which is why it lloks as thought the door is out of alignment.

Nic Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 The rear quarter panels are welded on AFAIK, so much bigger job to replace them. You can get access to the inside of the rear quarter panels by removing the rear speaker mount and trim, so majority of the bump may be able to be knocked out from behind. Mine is much worse than yours at the moment, after some $^%*er hit me whist I was parked, then drove off, been told mine shouldn't be too difficult to fix.

_Lick_ Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Thorin here: Somebody clipped you and drove off? Did you get his number? Hard to tell but doesn't look too bad, should straighten out easy enough I would have thought. Edit: should have read your post properly, you didn't get his number.

SilverMachine Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Sorry to read/see the damage, but as mentioned earlier, it's not too bad. If you're after another cover for the vent, email Chase on here, as I sold both sides vents to him and I know he only needs one. Not sure which side he used though. He could post it down to you, they're only plastic so shouldn't cost a fortune. Good luck. Gaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Doesn't seem to bad i guess, you could have come out alot worse. The little bastards, i think the red mist would have decended and i would have given chase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
