Car repair progress

[MickA]

Sad world we live in when we daren't claim on our insurance, (because that's what it's for) to get screwed over when we next renew.

 

Guessing you are a good deal younger than me so it would hurt. Even at my age I think it would hurt me also with an impeccable record of nil claims as far back as I can remember.

 

Hope you get it looking as good as new for minimal £ss

Yes I'm only a mere 19 years, insurances is pretty good for my age and I don't want to ruin that

Don't say that! I'll have to get the thread moved to the "Citigo project journal" area

And maybe if I decide to replace the bumper you could give a helping hand and perhaps that vinyl wrapped grill of yours will slip in

I have only just seen this thread but glad to hear you are ok.

 

Good luck with your repairs and look forward to seeing you at the next show wherever that may be...

Decided to put a clear bag ontop of the custom tape for added protection against the rains we're supposedly expecting soon can't even tell there's any difference..

Already done a quick prep for repairs on the car.. removed a screw attaching the wing to the inner wheel arch as the impact had ripped it from it's fitting so decided it best to remove it before loosing it

Hope you get it all sorted out soon

I will do my best my new headlight's due to arrive next Monday/Tuesday and as I ordered the headlight bracket and wing from the same guy on eBay they'll be (hopefully) arriving together by not next week week after

I'm probably going to try and install all in one day, I don't want to attach a good headlight to a damaged bracket

Nothing to do with the repair progress but looking through this forums projects is giving me stupid ideas I'm thinking I could move the tow hook and have a ram air intake with the pipe starting where the tow hook location is... :no: I have to resist the urge to mod and repair the car first

If it was in our house, probably a cat...

Maybe a new headlamp unit??

[Hyphons]

Well well well what do we have here then? And no it isn't a cat

All bulbs are there, not that they'll be used (apart from the indicator) I didn't realise until today it's brand new

[Hyphons]

Don't shoot me, but I'm considering if it'll be worthwhile paying the wing to be sprayed.. or if I should pay £80 for a strip of marvel b&w vinyl wrap.. mm decisions decisions

[Mick 50]

It's too nice a car Respray it .But that's my just my opinion .
