Default Some tool smashed into my car and drove off!!

Hey guys,

More depressing news that is carparks and people who have no morals.

I was parked at morley shopping centre yesterday and left for 10min to get a powerball ticket. Came back and my whole rear left hand side door had been smashed in!

Yes u guessed it no note, they did a runner, no witness either.
Sux balls!!!

My insurance excess is too high ($1500) to make a claim so anyone know a decent panel beater i can use or somewhere i can get a replacement rear left side door to suit a Subaru Liberty MY05 GT.

And no i didnt win powerball!! Zoolander to Poohlander is all i can say!

Cheers Guys,
Duxi

ahh that sucks, someone hit the side of me as they reversed out at stirling train station, no note, dogs with no respect, just try spare parts places you can usually pick up peices quite cheap,

speak to john the owner they always have rex's come through, i usually put all the peices on myself so that saves a lot of money..

sux dude i know how you feel, in late 06 someones did a runner on my my99 gc8 when i was in the gym, what made it worse was the car was for sale at the time, no note just ran off, was a 4wd and towbar that hit me, coz it put a hole right thru the panel at the top of the door and smashed my window, glass everywhere.

i managed to get a door from the wreckers for 150 bucks and luckily my old mans old work mechanics had a panel beaters section and they painted and fitted the door for i think it was about another 450. my excess was too high to claim as well. but 600 to get it repaired wasnt bad at all. good luck to ya!

why do people even buy power ball tickets? The chances of winning are so remote its something like one in 30 million chances. Why do you think it jackpots all the time? In fact more people get hit by fucking lighting than win power ball in Australia.

at least Saturday lotto you've got a 'relatively' good chance of winning at one in 12 million :P

They should start a new lotto that is even less likely to be won, and they will sell even more tickets to idiots as the jackpot will never stop going up



anyway: i'd find a new panel / door at the wreckers and swap it myself.

02 STi lights sent out with broken parts, missing bulbs .. afaik no resolution.
STi Spec C wheels quoted as fitting an 02 STi, ended up being 5x114.3 ..

The guys there don't appear to care much about the customer. If you can get a panel that isn't dinged from them, take it and run.
