NewbieLewby Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 Damm. Main thing is your alrite. Is this the end of this little gem?No it'll carry on just not as pretty anymore I think I've either knocked the tracking out or bent a control arm so I need to take a look.

morgey Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 You'll just have to do the same on the other side now, even things out a bit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flynn Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Rear quarter is a bastard to do and costly.....if you can get it smoothed or just live with the ripples then I'd do that. Looking at £1000 minimum to get a new rear quarter.....I've done it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rich-k Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) You can have your quater repaired without it having ripples, just depends on the garage, if they use a block on all there repairs and prime it twice it will more than likely be okay, best bet is obv to replace the quater but like i say prices depend on where you take your car, my garage would charge say 80-150 for a standard bumper repair where as a garage around the corner from me are rip of cunts and charge between 400-500 for the same job lol Edited May 17, 2015 by Rich-k Quote Link to post Share on other sites

_shaun_ Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Ahh that's bad luck mate we wondered what had happened. Not to be cheeky but your tyres where prob a bit far gone for the track! Your fronts looked pretty much on the limit and back had slot more tread! Either way atleast yous were safe and got to drive home. i wouldn't bother with the quater panel just keep it as a wee track slag Quote Link to post Share on other sites
