You feel the difference straight away... you'd be surprised what a metal tube can do to the rigidity of the suspension towers.

ummm.. well wasn't what i did.. It was what some yobbo did. Reversed his old commodore into my not even one month old lancer in a shopping centre carpark.. Lucky I saw him do it, and he was thoughtful enough to stop and exchange details.. Minor Damage to the upper front bumper. Has anyone had a similar incident? Cost of Repair etc. Also anyone in the North Brisbane Area know of a decent scratch and dint specialist?

Cheers Ayden.

Thanks for the details Mitch. I know i said cost. But do they do a quality job? Looking for serval places for quotes etc. The person that did it will be paying for it..

(I would have PM'd you but post count is low)

Cheers, Ayden

IT never ceases to fascinate me how Australian drivers cannot reverse and back into all kinds of things BUT the kicker here is that they still refuse to install reverse parking sensors.

It really boils down on poor driver education. Everything is centred on a far-from-perfect rule book. For most people, it's enough to pass the licence test and not bother about other important stuff. The book doesn't teach things like how to park properly or avoid an accident. No wonder 9/10 cars have gutter rash. And for those money-hungry weasels, why don't you fine improperly parked vehicles instead?

Gutter rash can be cause by many things. I have gutter rash on my wheels for two reasons. 1: I missed judge the distance of the gutter due to poor concentration. 2: I was cut off inside an undercover carlot where i had to either rish scraping the gutters (this happened) or let the idiot in the other car damage the whole side of my car..... Gutter rash is the least of our problems on Aus roads. but 9/10 is a big claim :P
