im soo pi**ed off, the only day i have left it at home when i go to work and some knob jockey has gone and driven into the front corner of my car and drove off. what makes it more aggrevating is that its only just been re-sprayed!
it was definatly a white car as it left paint on my car.
the front drivers wing needs repairing and the morette headlight is cracked and the brackets snapped and the bumper needs respraying now, all the paint has come off it, the bumper has been pushed slightly aswell so it doesnt line up properly.

it doesnt look to bad from a distance but i dont have the money at the moment to repair it

the car was almost ready for buffing aswell and would have been finished(the dull paint is flatted paintwork ready for buffing)

i have tryed pulling the wing out as much as i could with a bar but it still doesnt line up properly.









after i had a little fettle it is now looking like this at the moment


should be buying a cctv camera this week.


before it got re-sprayed i was thinking of smoothing the line in the bumper and maybe the numberplate recess but didnt in the end.
im thinking of doing that now
anyone got any pics of this done on post 97, i cant seem to find any??

none of the neighbours have said they saw who was parked infront of my car today, they are all OAP's and dont leave the house so i dont see how they didnt see, might have something to do with them not liking ym family though lol.

luckily i can do the bodywork myself and at a mates bodyshops.

what does everyone think to smoothing the post 97 front bumper?

yeah, the brackets have snapped, thats how much the wing was pushed in, thats just de-valued them alot more. i onyl got them for £10 though, i think id be more angry if i payed full wack for them.

I saw this happen at Bluewater once and took the guys number down and gave it in to the concierge desk.

This fucks me off like you wouldnt believe
