The girlfriend strikes again! Crash No.3

[CrippsCorner]

not content with smashing my carbon fibre splitter off and scratching my wheel to buggery... today she decided to drive into a pillar. Annoyingly as you can see it's not just a single panel that's effected.

I've never actually had to repair a car before so what do I do from here lol. Is it worth getting one of those dent repairs guys out? I'm not sure if that's a viable option as the skirts and door handle etc. will need spraying too. Otherwise does anyone know of a good sprayer in Essex?

Any guesses as to how much this is likely to cost?

 

[aucky]

Jesus wept. Why don't you have a 1 strike policy!?

 

[The Russian.]

Looks lovely and clean [emoji106]

 

[Jack!]

Scrap it.

(the girlfriend that is)

 

[GrahamS]

Second hand door, skirt, miracle pull the 1/4 so minimal filler is used then paint. Sorted.

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Sorry but why do people ask 'how much this is likely to cost'

It'll be between £1 and £10,000.

 

[Steven103]

You moved the toaster again didn't you...

 

[Ben]

I would be furious.

 

[brisa4984]

my days.

once thats fixed it would have been cheaper to buy her a s**t car to run around in!

seriously! she needs a banger!!

Who could do it for a pound?

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

my days.

She needs to pay for this damaged she caused and then buy her own damn car to wreck.

Fcuk that with shiny bells on !!

 

[Daniel]

Repair and paint that I'm going with £5-700.

Should have left the toaster alone.

 

[Typhoon]

You moved the toaster again didn't you...

 

[Carlv8415]

I would be making her pay for that....

 

[Addicted]

Ouch!

Best of luck

 

[Starlet_gt]

I hope she's paying for it otherwise you're bloody mental.

 

[N4TH4N]

Oh no. I couldn't ever share a car with the split arse no way

 

[Addicted]

Oh no. I couldn't ever share a car with the split arse no way

Even worse, he has to share a toaster with her

 

[car.crash]

I'm going to have to surrender my username at this rate.

 

[car.crash]

seriously! she needs a banger!!

I could bangher xx

 

[CrippsCorner]

Oh I'll make her pay :smile: only problem is she doesn't have any money and already owes me £500... so I guess I'm paying now, and adding it on to her lengthy slate! Had her mum on the phone having a go at me for having a go at her. I think, if there's ever a situation where you can have a go at someone, it's when they've just crashed your car! Muppet.

So do you guys reckon it's a better idea to get a second hand door and skirt and get the dent sorted by itself rather than get it all sprayed? Thanks for the input so far. As for the toaster, I never did get it where I wanted it, but I put my foot down about the utensils I bought and so far they've stayed put lol.

Silver is the hardest colour to match I would be surprised if its the same shade as the rest of the car once painted.

K-Tec.

 

[Paprika123]

K-Tec.

Pre tax then.

 

[Paprika123]

Also pics of her mum?

 

[Typhoon]

Had her mum on the phone having a go at me for having a go at her.

As for the toaster, I never did get it where I wanted it

Care to share her good points? Would you have gotten the phone call if you put your foot down and requested the toaster stays where you want it? Jesus, all sounds a bit like a noddy relationship.

b****cks really... maybe getting second hand parts isn't the best idea then

Any recommendations for sprayer around my parts then?

 

[decco]

Looks like a write off to me ..

.. (the relationship , not the car )

 

[...]

She had an accident , its hardly the end of the world. Yeah she didnt do it on purpose and maybe needs to take more care but just go see a couple of bodyshops and get quotes for cash jobs

I scraped a bumper on the volvo this week , going to cost a couple of hundred quid , but hell s**t happens

 

[scotty10]

buy another one

 

[Knuckles]

Sorry to hear, I thought my female did a bad enough job catching the edge of my arch... That was £400 repair for a 250ish mm x 25ish mm area!

Jesus. Her mam sounds like a piece of work too!

I'd tell her to get the bus from now on.

Reading this makes me feel misogynistic.

 

[DrR]

Pics of gf?

 

[Cropper]

Only positive.. Your getting lucky everynight for a week

Well if the damage is re sprayed in the same colour it left the factory i can guarantee it would not match 10+year old paint, second hand parts will be better.

 

[Carlv8415]

Picture of said girlfriend or it never happened

 

[Chris_Beer]

LOL

 

[BoatNonce]

50 blowjobs, minimum. And a permanant ban on driving it.

Unless you're under her thumb and she dictates everything. Like properly under the thumb. Sorta she-decides-where-the-toaster-goes level of under the thumb. Or she-owes-you-500-quid-and-you-don't-expect-to-see-it-anytime-soon level of under the thumb.

 

[Sash]

Colourtone in burnt mills is he only guy I could recommend.

Oh and next time get £2k deposit before she sets foot back near the drivers seat....

 

[imprezaworks]

Oh dear

Well that is actually b****cks. The shop will just do some spray out cards to get the paint right. Shouldn't be a problem at all now. If you go somewhere with a dupot chromavision or something similar. This is how you do paint nowadays and you won't be able to tell the difference.
