Pimm Junior Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Started off pretty normal week... Parked the girl in the normal spot and woke up to her dented and scratched this morning My rear drivers quarter panel pushed in and scratched but the filler cap was safe. Not sure what's the next move... New part and spray? Or see if someone can work some magic and spray? In a way I do need my front Bonet and bumper sprayed so gives me a reason to get that done I suppose Quote
Vlad Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Oh, no way Gutted for you mate! Dont think you gonna need new panel for that. Decent bodyshop should sort that out. 1 Quote
Ebized Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Sorry to see that but seeing where you parked and the height of the dent I'd hazard a guess that was a home delivery van reversing - as my wife's car was hit sometime back by one of those and that looks remarkably similar. That said, without any evidence sadly the repair will be out of your pocket Quote
Pimm Junior Posted September 19, 2015 Author Posted September 19, 2015 Yeah I was hoping that. I'll just have to pop in some place Monday and see what they say Quote

ZEUS Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Looks like a wagons backed into you judging by the height but that's very repairable without a new panel. I've had a repair done in the same place and it was fine. Quote
Exec Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 No new panel needed, probably about £250 worth of damage, needs fillered and painted. Sucks when you don't have anything new to show and money out of pocket. I can't work out what's going on in that reflection, are you naked? Quote
leebottrill Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 This kind of thing drives me nuts! People have no respect. I've spent loads this year having dents removed! Now I use two. Spaces to park Any cameras? Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Time to get a BlackBue CCTV. Sorry to hear that, hopefully it can be fixed pretty quick. 1 Quote
ioneabee Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 ^^ what he said .............. I'm sure Ady will be stocking them soon I fitted a set (front and rear) and since then ............nothing has happened Quote
Pimm Junior Posted September 20, 2015 Author Posted September 20, 2015 Unfortunately no cameras caught anything and will be getting it sorted as soon as I can as my Z is my daily runner and it's embarrassing to have it like that Quote
Pimm Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 He has had it done by a local garage and they have done a superb job. Happy days. 1 Quote
mdunbar Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Poor that no details were left. Good body shop will sort that for a few hundred notes though. Not the end of the world Quote
