Bad news someone from my next door decided to drink and drive and got in his car and reversed into the back of my freshly new painted back BUMPER!! Fuming! However I have CCTV images of the accident of them leaving there house and getting in the car with a beer barley walking getting ready to drive! So I rang the police this morning and as I have no reg I need find out his details but te issue is they hardly speak English :-( and they tried to deny they knew the car until I showed them the CCTV and then they said its there friends , friend that owns the car and that they would find the details out for me I have to go to police station later to show them my car and report leaving accident and not reporting it so what to do :-(

[cazzy]

Well I seen the guy who did it and his car so today I got his reg details and his insurance details he was trying argue that it's not a scratch and it would simply polish out! Then he offer me £20!! Haha don't think that will cover it So he then tried the game of me being a girl I know nothing! And said if I claim my insurance will go up £500 wtf?! I'm the victim HERE! Why would my insurance go up when your the guy who decided to drink and drive and leave scene of a accident and failed to report it and driveing with out due care and attention So I think I will be the only winner here! Then he tried offer me £20 again and argue there no scratch as his iPhone could not pick it up on its camra Anyways police now have all his details and I will shortly been contacting my insurance what a load of hassle!!! Can see why people get so angry when people hit them!

[cazzy]

So went to CSS and had all my dents pulled out for £80 I have also sent my car in to motofox body repair and they are puting a new back bumper on and respray and also going give my bonnet a full respray then it's booked in this week with RUSS for full detail!

iam the same with my ph1 had it 3 years and still love it even though its only a 1.2 .. always cleaning it :P..

[cazzy]

If a car knows you look after it I reckon they look after you too :-) 150,000 miles still going strong as ever :-D

[flat-eric]

When are you getting the belts done? dephaser also?

[cazzy]

Already been done about 2000 miles a go :-)

[cazzy]

Little update :-) motofix damaged my car even worse than I thought they polished it so much they burnt the paint :-( and scratched my driver door. They also sprayed my front splitter a original splitter my I add :-( due to them not covering it up very well!
so they are now paying for spray station to spray my whole 1 side and for a new splitter from Renault :-) They are also paying for another detail by Midlands Car Care as they parked my car next to a building that was bring knocked down waited till it was covered in dust then washed it not once but 4 times! :-(

[cazzy]

My car is now going to have a full side respray as the paint readings were really low from where motofix tryed polishing it too much so the insurance are paying for this I am also paying for the front bumper to be resprayed as the paint is chipping and there loads of stone marks from the roads i am then haveing it detailed again by Russ at midlands car care i will uplode pics when its all finished! ooh i also brought a carbon skined bumper insert from chris powell

[guysy]

Shame about the damage to the car and the poor repair following, the pics after the detail look lovely!

I'm not sure if its to your taste but for me some white side indicator lenses would be a good addition.

[cazzy]

yeah i had the white side repeaters on when i 1st had the car but like the OE look with a few little carbon extras

[cazzy]

Update...

I have now got my car back from Spray Station and Midlands Car Care The car went in for a whole side respray and a detail after it was wrecked by Motofix


Spray Station prep before paint

Fresh new paint the paint on this is Fantastic Mick did such a good job i will be going back to him with my front bumper and bonnet after looking at his evo it is the best paint shop i have seen!! I was told about him through Russ at Midlands Car Care.

nice dryed paint before its detail as you can see it looks nice before its even had its detail.

Spray Station (Mick) also sprayed some of my plastics black as they were so faded restore products just wouldn't touch it.

Im told the black on the plastic should also last up 2 years! but the paint work should last for years!! after looking at his evo that was painted 9 years a go it still looks brilliant

Russ used Zaino Europe Z2 & Swissvax UK Shield

Thanks for looking comments and feedback welcome!!

[cazzy]

A huge thank you to Russ and his team for answering all my insurance calls all the crap we had to go through to get this far!! and to Spray Station for the paint work i would recommend them to anybody
