    ah bugger.............

    hope you heal quickly.....

    panels were still available, you can get just the top crossmember between the headlights separately OR a whole front panel

    Gutted !!
    What did you hit, looks like you almost went under it.. Thats why i never bought a carbon bonnet, i'd be mighty pi55ed off if i'd done that

    Looks a fairly simple fix though

    Re: crashed :(

    cheers people,cant belive it! as for the victim.....a skyline r33 couldnt belive it,head on,some prick infront on a muddy country lane had no brake bulb and just stopped....i swerved,braked,skidded....into the path of said skyline....luck we were both going slow,could have been alot worse,not claiming for mine on insurance,work in a renault bodyshop so can fix it for less than my excess,but his is only valued at £3500 so they'l probably write it off as the parts are expensive,offered to sort it but he chose the insurance route....he'l regret it when they tell him they wont fix it.

    oh and the bonnet,already fixed

    Hope your foot gets better soon... and your 5 too of course!!
