Nope. Wheel people rang on Friday saying the alloys had quite a lot of pitting, so had to go back in the stripper.. or something along those lines. Tomorrow hopefully!
Does anyone know the paint code for standard cup turinis? Last time I asked for 'bright silver' they were more grey. Ive had a search but it isnt what I remember.. I remember the paint code being a weird word and a number.
Poorer quality of life up north though!
Just spoke to them and tried to get it for £250 cash but they outsource them now and pay £70 per wheel anyway (I had haggled from £80).
Yeah i know that mate, just a pain!
@General Dave ERB have got back to me and quoted 'roughly £350'. Price obviously isnt an issue as it isnt me paying. Their work looks good on their website too.
Going to ask a few more people on Monday and then get a written quote. Seems annoying that I have to be without a car for two days and do all the leg work for his accident!!
Thanks @General Dave - will definitely fire over some pics.
Just went to a local bodyshop down by Sainsburys in Fareham. They stated the dent would be pushed out, a very very small amount of filler, and then the whole rear 1/4 would need to be painted.. 6 hours and £390.
Seem accurate? I will...
Old bloke has admitted it was him. He said 'oh i got ever so close but was certain I didnt hit it', and then there is a scuff and a bit of my paint on the part which holds the wheels on the back of his 4x4.
He has agreed to pay a quote, just annoying that it wont be back to what it was, as such.
Thanks all. Waiting for the bloke to come back and i'll knock on his door. Surely it will need blending in across the boot and the rear side?
Not sure if this is silver paint or down to the metal on mine? Dont want to try and rub anything off yet.
Just noticed this on my car..
There is a silver 4x4 thing who lives opposite and a builder a few doors down heard a crunch then saw a silver 4x4 drive off.
Not on a replaceable panel, and right on that crease. Really gutted! What can be done?
