Hey guys, I'm having a problem with the back of my car its got the little dent in it. Any idea's what I can do?

 

that my freind is almost considered a right off.. I hope you are insured??

They would need to get a rear cut to replace the back end....something you don't want to do.

How or who did that to your car?

 

That is the result of wet roads, under steer, over steer and over correcting twice, and then a 180 into a power pole. A cat or something ran out in front of me.

3rd party insurance only. So no

What are your suggestions to do with it now? Repair would be a LOT of work, structural damage is pretty bad. Probably not worth it. Front end is alright. Sell it as a halfcut? although its the 4g15 without efi, so hmmm. A wreckers wont give me much for it right? Or sell the parts? I've had offers for the wheels and springs and some other stuff already, lol.

Any other suggestions, anyone?

 

ouch! poor lil lancer....i think its time to get a new one hehe i nearly died when i crashed cause 'a man ran out in front of me' but luckily i had full comp....but def time to get a new lancer man...good luck

 

I dunno what i'd do in your position, Odium - but I certainly feel for you.

Maybe sue the owner of the cat?

 

actually it's not that bad u could just cut and shut the rear end for 5k or so or

B

cut it out and turn it 4wd as i have a complete rear end to have a 4wd coupe

 

Exactally... for $5k... that was the original price of the car. I dont want to spend another 5k to make it some weirdo cyborg machine.

I'm currently in the process of getting quotes to sell it to a wreckers. Seems like the best option at the moment. Unless you can think of others?

Soooo what kind of car should I get for a price of about $5000? (loan from parents). I saw a nice Mazda MX6 2.2T with assloads of custom stuff... (bov,intake,exhaust,stereo,etc etc) for $5800. Looks alright to me. Any ideas?

 

honda integra LS is pretty good
comes with all the goodies like power windows air con sunroof and its 104kw for the 1.8
my mate got one last week for only 5k... and it kills my lancer

 

you could use a pop a dent lol. Damm that sucks man yeah looks like the wreckers is your best bet...

 

odium didnt your your rear have a brace bar?? cause my friend told me that sometimes repaires dont put em on to cut corners, cause he looked at your pics and said that the car was repaird but not done properly
basically down behind the bumper a fat piece of steel should go accross the back, i know mine does cause thats what saved me when this ford XD tank slammed me from behind at 50km/h

 

Hmmmm, I dont know anything about a rear brace bar....

Its not just a GLXi thing? because this is just a GL
Also the previous owners had the bumpers sprayed the same blue color insytead of leaving them the stock gray, maybe it was removed for some reason? which is kinda stupid if thats the case.

Yeah, my mates got an integra LS... its a nice drive. got custom exhaust and intakes, goes pretty well. Although I used to beat it off the line because of the weight... by the time we were in 3rd though, he would fly past me.

 

Yeah, I looked and there wasnt any brace bar on it...

I just got offered $800 for it at a wreckers

Considuring other offers... does anyone want any parts?

 

alright, offered $900 today

Still 6 months left on the insurance and rego, so I can get that back as a refund Public transport is a *****, you dont know how much you need a car until you dont have one. hehe.

So does ANYONE want any parts before I send it off to a wreckers? Front end it still good. Rexy? Anyone with a CC?

 

I woulda loved the colour coded bumpers !!

 

how is the carbi on it??

Mine is starting to **** me... when its cold it chuggs along like a mo fo
