Damn, not good. Could be a lot worse, especially at speed. Unless you have witness' it is her word against yours she was on her phone. She will obviously say no, and usually it is people behind who are found at fault, even though she is obviously retarded.

no no jon, Was going down a major rd and she came out of a side street and went right across the traffic :)

i hit her side on couldn't stop in time lucky was no car to my left as i dived left as much as i could as quick as i could, couldn't go right as there was a traffic island next to me :( she was looking for traffic coming from the wrong way with he right hand holding up a mobile phone to her ear

. she seemed drunk or drugged even when i rang her today to sort out her insurance claim coz i cant do anything about mine till she starts a claim

Ah, it's in the bag then. Hopefully they don't write it off for that lil damage, especially after your recent work. Goodluck

So i checked it all out today looking for bent shit to replace, looks like its pretty ok really no rail dmg as it hit square on (strongest part) the top rad support is slightly kinked will have to asses that with a panel beater other than that it should all bend out ok for mounting the lights and what not, still expensive if it goes to a beater for the whole thing, not that i care its her fault i dont see why she shouldn't have to fix it all!

did an inventory of what i have looks like i'll need:
bonnet and driver side guard.

i have

bonnet (from frontn i hope) and d/s hinge
bumper
lights
nose cone
somehow the grill fell off intact!!!!!! :D yay even after like 80 cars rolled over it before i could pick it up safely

Thats if it gets written off, even if it is i'll use the money to fix it as its old than 15 years or what ever it is, i dont need to get a viv done.

may even get like a full body spray out of it if i do the prep with my friend and get him to paint it (rough quote not at mates rates) 1700 to fix it all properly write off value is 2k so we will see


and gsr u mean 'such' right?? :D lol
