Got a quote today to get the Evo sorted. £2077!!!

Can't wait to see the look on the faces of the guys at the garage where it got damaged when I tell them tomorrow.

I would like to think it would but either way they will be getting the bill.

Quite funny in a way cause the Evans Halshaw garage in Edinburgh I got the car from have had to pay £4000 to fix a few things and now the Evans Halshaw garage in Motherwell are gonna have the £2077 bill for the repair for the rear end. They will be wishing they had never set eyes on the Evo!!! :razz:

New discs and pads fitted today. Atleast they are done and I don't need to worry about rushing to fit them after my Evo has been to the bodyshop incase I can make it down to the photoshoot.

Nah just leaving it as an 8 bumper. If I decide to change it in the future I will get one from Mitsi and take it to the body shop that is fixing my Evo to get them to spray it.

If I was gonna change it I would consider gettin a 9 front bumper aswell and get both sprayed and fitted at the same time.

In an ideal world I would have the 7 front bumper and the 9 rear, its the big round bits I'm not too keen on with the 9 front but also I have looked into having my 8 bumper nodded to get rid of the lump that the badge sits on should be a case of cut it out fill and smoother spray and blow in but as with all mates who work in bodyshops they always take long to get back to you and you lose interest one day maybe

Parts are taking their time to come! spoke to the bodyshop today. The bootlid has been delivered but still waiting on bumper, bumper bar and the evolution decals for the bootlid.

Car is provisionally booked in for the 24th, so the rest of the parts should hopefully be here by then!!!

Just want it back to normal ASAP so I can start adding a few bits to it.
