By guess what...a bloody hub-cap It's scuffed my bumper really bad and managed to knock out my fog light and grill surround

thank's

On a good note, I got her number and she said to call her and tell her if it's going to cost to be painted. She admited she hit the kerb and see the hub cap over take her

Car only got painted under a week ago

sorry to hear that mate, only just after you had the corsa colour coded

hope the damage isn't too bad, but at least you don't need to pay for repairs. people really should take more care with their car's.

Sucks Stavs.

Ive only ever seen one fly off and roll off down the road. At the time i found it amusing. But they could be dangerous.
