Castle Combe - Performance Car Action Day 24-04-2010

[Aebous]

So I have to ask.... Did anyone notice this while my car was parked at the track?!?!?!?
I know we noticed feathers on the side by the wheel, but I don't think any of us saw it.

I have the insurance coming to take a look at the bumper tomorrow. Hopefully I can sweet talk them into letting me put an M bumper on the car. I'm looking now to see if the bottom half of the bumper is replaceable or all one piece. On the plus side hopefully I can at least get rid of scratches and stuff on the bottom.

LOL!

i know i pointed out the wheel arch feathers when you arrived but never noticed the whole bird in the front!

how long was it before you found it?

 

[Aebous]

It was monday, I stopped at the gas station before work and on the way out saw it wedged in there. I'm mad at myself that I forgot to look Friday when I hit it. I was in a hurry and too focused on getting ready for track events.

 

[bulldog5046]

i wouldnt get mad, its minor damage and its actually quite funny when you think about it.

personally, i would avoid the insurance as the premiums will go up massivly for making a claim.

the mess will pop out i expect and be cheap to replace.

Ry

Yeah that was one thing I didn't realize, was how easy/cheap it would be to replace. Unfortunately it's after I called them. So I'll see what the guy says then probably tell them no thanks c ya later. USAA screws me anyways, so why should now be different.

 

[bulldog5046]

i'd guarentee your insurance is consideribly cheaper than mine, we really get screwed over in the UK and being 22 doesnt help.

i've just had my renewal with 5 years NCB - £1292.

 

[Dreamer]

Ha Ha Never saw that there, wonder if passers by on the day noticed it!

I have a spare front bumper you can have if it comes to it.

That is ridiculous, you were talking about roadkill but I didn't realise you were carrying them around in the bonnet! Dinner is served...
