thought i'd bump up this thread with my sob story... last night, played in my local pool comp, came second, won myself some piss. no dramas there. drive home go to bed, look at my car this morning to find that some useles *&#%$@ hit it in the carpark last night and didnt leave a note... (hit the corner of my front bar, scuffed my indicator lens, cracked bumper... missed front panels by millimetres...) it's a secure undercover carpark and i find out today it has no bloody cameras... just to put it in context this thing has just been completely stripped and painted and has been back on the road again for a month and a half, tops... seriously... anybody who will hit and run in a carpark should be castrated with a blowtorch and a rusty screwdriver... and since there is sweet fcukall i can do about it... that, is the end of my rant Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
