Gainzy Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 You can pull that exhaust over a little more ;) love the colour! I wouldn't change those wheels looks sweet! Quote
Rich-k Posted March 20, 2016 Author Posted March 20, 2016 You can pull that exhaust over a little more ;) love the colour! I wouldn't change those wheels looks sweet!Thanks mate! The exhaust is only tempory fitted with a universal exhaust hanger as the backbox is for a ep82 but the seller told me it was for a 91 lol! Once the hangers are re welded it will be great cheers man its nice too see it in the sun for a change!! Quote

Whitenoize Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 No way dude that sucks so much time and effort went into this car gutted for you Quote
jimmymac101 Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 Car got rear ended today abseloutly gutted damage dont look too bad on the outside but boot floors been pushed in so my car may be a write off im so gutted :( Aww man hope your ok though James Quote
Ryan5793 Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 Gutted for you man had no luck after the respray with this at all have you! Quote
EP70-PT Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 Gutted... I loved your car :'( hope you'll be back though, admired the paint work that you did Quote
NewbieLewby Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 Ah man That really sucks. After all the work you put in. You thinking reshell? Quote
Rich-k Posted March 26, 2016 Author Posted March 26, 2016 I have had no luck this year at all! Haha im hoping its not too bad I've not been able to look properly yet but from what i can see my quaters are all still straight and everything and everything should be repairable.Id rather fix mine then buy another one because off the amount of work i put in to the shell and mine seems very solid underneath! Just hope my rear coilovers aint damaged or anything like that lol! Quote
Westley Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 I can't even imagine how it feels having a car that you've transformed so much like this, then having it crashed into! Gutting! Hopefully if it's all straight you could try persuade the insurance company that you can replace any ruined parts cheap enough since you'll be painting them yourself Quote
*Pete* Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 This completely sucks, this year hasn't been good a start for starlets :'( if you need a boot floor I have one we could cut out for you after I was hit head on in start of January. Probably on the other side of the uk to you though. Pete Quote
EP70-PT Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Why can't you see the damage? DP they take the car away when you crash? How does it work in the UK? Quote
Rich-k Posted March 27, 2016 Author Posted March 27, 2016 Thanks for the comments guys i should be able to repair the boot floor, but it has really pissed me off, the outside damage dont look that bad really its split my rear bumper two small dents in the boot but its the underneath thats the killer and i just have a horrible feeling that there going to write it off, if they do i hope they let me buy it back if not ill have to try n salvage as much as i can without them kicking off!Ill doubt it will be done before japfest if anything because ill have to wait for the car to be looked at by an assesor so there goes the money i paod for tickets and the hotel which was for my birthday weekend i am properly gutted everyone says its just a car forget about it blah blah you can get another but they wernt the ones who spent months late night n long weekends in the garage fixing it and getting it to how i want it, i just cant think about it as it makes me upset hahaha Quote
EP70-PT Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 That must hurt... Seeing your car getting salvaged by others... Gotta be fast!! Quote
*Pete* Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 I was offered 690 for mine but I kept the car and they only took 50 quid off, so I still got 640 and the car with 700 quid worth of wheels suspension and few other bits Quote
SOG33K Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 No way man, hopefully you can salvage it. The rear floor pan can be unstitched easily enough I'm doing mine after it was rear ended. Hopefully yours isn't too bad. Quote
SpikeyJp_68 Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 That's such a shame mate hopefully you'll be able to get it sorted Quote
Rich-k Posted March 29, 2016 Author Posted March 29, 2016 She will live again and i will be at japfest!! Thats my plan anyway lol Quote
