Bird bends Ragnotti

[Eddd]

Slippy bit of road on the way to the train station caught her out.

Looks like A arm, ball joint, halfshaft bits, wing and liner bit...

Easy hit against an embankment. Hope to have it back together for the weekend!

Not good Eddd. Hope you get it sorted soon, and at least everyone was okay?

No injuries, thankfully. Just a little love tap. Posted photographs in the media section.

The road was quite slippy, and I was able to slide about in rubber soled shoes.

Hope you get it all sorted

Bit worse than it looked initially. Probably in excess of €5,000!

Hope to go with RenaultSport competition parts for the rebuild though.

Front subframe, anti roll bar, steering rack, axle, A arm, wing, bumper etc. are cooked.

Shame Edd, shame. Welcome to my world. Did something similar in the Cup but at high speed - had all of the above to replace plus front bumper and front subframe.

Best of luck - at least you know which parts youll need and how much they cost!

 

[Eddd]

CupCake, what was the final bill on yours?

Surprisingly enough, it appears that the RenaultSport competition bits are cheaper than their civilian counterparts.

Unlucky Eddd, hope it gets sorted quickly for you.

Edd.... as a rough break down:

New front bumper: £100
New splitter: £55
Arch liner: £25

Lower steering arm + front subframe + tracking etc £750
Paint scuffed side skirt: £60
New front tyres (as one was wrecked) £130
Front wheel repaired: £40

All in all, £1,200 ish I guess.

Not too bad - could have bent the pins that hold the subframe into the car - then I would have been fooked.

Two weeks to get back on road considering I repaired or replaced everything myself with the exception of the subframe/steering arm.
