My condolences on the damage.

Just bear in mind that you could do what meaty did and get a RA front or RA bonnet, since insurace will now be part paying alot of the work for you.

Yes you most certainly DO need a RA Vin.........

I asked in the secret forum if i could "loan" one, however i did not get one, and i cannot blame any member for not volunteering theres.

Can't you just use the VIN numbers for all the Ralliarts for sale on carsales.com?

Oh jebus. Basically half the price of a brand new car with that repair cost.

Getting the RA front sounds cool, but I would assume it voids something somewhere in the insurance PDS. Proceed with caution.

Yes I would not be recommending you do so. Especially as this is a public forum you dont know who is lurking around reading this

Sorry to hear about the car mate. Truth be told, at the speed you impacted, your airbags would have done more harm than good to you! So just as well they didnt go off!

My mum and dad are picking the car up as I type this >< wish I wasn't at work so I could be there! I'll post up some picks this weekend.


P.S For anyone wondering, there was around $11k worth of damage.
