Then I accept your apology lol

I was cursing like a m*^$&ker, but knew it was your fault mate :)

Well got some Project MU pads installed a few weeks ago.

To me they dont feel any different than the standard pads, but took them to the RAC Track day, and they help up ok. Couldnt compare them with the standards on hard braking as never had to brake that hard in the standards.

Unfortunatley last wed morn at 04:30 on my way to the airport to fly to work, a dog ran out in front of my car. The front bumper has been ripped in half, the plastic stone guard ripped off, both run over by passing cars, I think my headlight is cracked, and I couldnt see enough or had the time to look at the paint.

Lost it into the dirt median strip, so paint chips may be there also. Knocking/clunking in the rear also.

Fortunatley the poor dog was killed instantly (I hope), it wasnt alive when I checked.

Car going to Wayne Phipps for a quote for Shannons. Im thinking this repair if going to take a while :(

Im so devo as this car was immaculate and never has any panel/body work done to it.

There goes that and my no claim bonus and $500 excess :(

But Im thankful Im ok and there isnt major damage (I hope)

Mister Two 25-03-2012 07:01 PM

Shite! Did the dog have an tag/microchip?

I think with the dog running around off leash, it means the owner is liable for damages since it ran out in front of your car.

Tahlia 25-03-2012 07:05 PM

I was in too much shock to remember or even think to look for that and main roads did not get back to me with any details. Even if it had I don't think I could have brought myself to touch it :-/.

SJTWRC 25-03-2012 09:08 PM

aw no :( sorry to hear!

Brett Allan 25-03-2012 09:32 PM

That's terrible to hear, hope you get the car fixed up and back to former condition, very sad about the dog too :(

ausyve 19-04-2012 03:44 PM

Sorry to hear about your car (and the dog).
Wayne did a whole front end replacement on my commonwhore back in the day.
Great work in my honest opinion.
Hope it all works out for you.

Tahlia 16-05-2012 03:53 PM

Wrxy went into the shop on Friday :) Have it back in 5-7 working days - yay

Tahlia 17-06-2012 12:25 PM

Update: Goes back into the shop in a week for the final touches - two brackets and one decal :) then all finished :)

Tahlia 12-07-2012 09:10 AM

Well all fixed now, bumper brackets and decal on :).

Bought white line front and rear sway bar links, as a flogged out bush on one link was causing terrible knocking sounds.

Getting a good bath this morn and heading out to get some good pics this arvo.

:T

Tahlia 19-08-2012 07:31 PM

Does your car have a sticker somewhere saying "If you can read this, you aren't close enough?"
