HIT & LEGGED IT!
« on: 08 January 2012, 16:37:44 »
Earlier today someone has collided with my car damaging the off side rear quarter panel, totally removing the petrol flap and busting the wing mirror keeping the glass intact, I mention the latter as there has to be a silver lining in most things.


Does anyone know of a body shop or person in North Staffordshire/Stoke on Trent area who does not charge the earth for repairing and repainting the same? Any help would be appreciated as running this through the insurance company would cost a small fortune in premiums next year.

Thanks guys

Damage to rear quarter and various other stuff - ins. will almost certainly write it off. ;)
Petrol flap and mirror may be available from someone on OOF (dont have any myself,but someone might) just a matter of then doing the research / legwork to get a good job at a sensible price. :y

Thanks for your comments guys.

Therefore if anyone can help with a new wing mirror assembly and petrol flap it would be appreciated.
(I have requested on here as I seem unable to register a want on the sale and wanted section)

Appreciated a lot more than the guy who hit my car and left the scene and for me to pay for the damage he caused!!

(I know I wake up the following day and feel really pi**ed)

Just a thought
was this done in S/Market car park or anywhere near cameras?
same happened to me in Asda couple of yrs back and I was lucky for once
Then took a delight in nailing the bitch (she still tryed to deny it)
