Well was a nice to get back to my car tonight and notice the drivers side of the bumper was hinging down, bumper is scratched, wing is pushed in and split, head light isn't sat tidy!! Mot on Friday to top it off, ideal as they will have ripped the mounting off the wing as it was bolted on :sad:

So that's a new wing and some spraying :( really hate people that do this sort of thing. Bump and just drive off!!

Worst part is there is potentially only one person who could have down it. Was parked up never my girl friends house, her neighbours have been moving out today and now the car is damaged. Have a feeling either reversing in or getting out they have clipped the evo :cry: can't prove it was them but anyone coming down the road would of side swiped the car.

Don't go through your insurance if you can afford the repairs yourself. I had a new set of tyres slashed and 3 panels keyed in 2010 on my ZR. I still have to declare this as a fault claim now although I have protected no claims it still bumps the price.

Yeah I remember you saying about what happened to your zr :shock: Im not going to go thought the insurance company over it, I have got the head light sorted, bumper fixed back on and the wing is ok, scratches are minor but there are stress marks on the bumper. Did clean it up, get the blue paint off and the dirt which made it look worse. Wing will need to be replaced, can see its kinked and not sitting as it should.

Seen the photo of zeddy on Facebook, was it pride of longbridge? Was looking very clean :D

Cheers Frankie, not to impressed least the car isn't as bad as first thought, could have been worse!
