yer no offence to the decent tradies out there coz i've met some weapons, but some of the things that come out of panel shops and their support is absolutely criminal.

Sorry to hear about your accident Laura, I'm sure the car will come back as good as new!


my rear bars out of alingment. my spoilers out of alingment. my boot has random holes drilled into it to accomodate the weird spoiler.. and my car is covered in holograms from their $2 buffer and 14 y.o operating it.

all im trying to do is make it well aware that theres a good chance that they wont be how they used to be. if it was just a straight bolt on and off panel fine. but cutting the quarters out is where i will never stay on board again.

Any halfwit panel beater can replace quarters, you just got a s**t one.
You really should have taken it up with the insurance company if you weren't happy with the repair.

It'll be fine Laura and Cam, just make a song and dance if theres anything you are unhappy with.
Remember alot of panel beaters overquote for an insurance job, and if they think they can get away with doing a cheaper job and making more profit, some of them will.
No offence to good panel beaters, they do exist, it's a shame their are pricks out there!

Who is it insured with out of interest?

Agreed. My rear bar doesn't sit where it should since being repaired, the boot lid hits it every time it closes because of it, and is now starting to rust because of the bare metal exposed. The place I took mine to doesn't exist anymore unfortunately, I tried to go back and get them to fix what they f**k up but the shop was closed down.

Just a quick update... got a phone call yesterday saying that Monti won't be coming home until at least next Friday at the earliest... probably the Wednesday following

Just a warning to the Getz community out there... Get out of the way because I'm starting to take out withdrawal symptoms on anyone seen in one :twisted:

You Sir, are a wanker. If it was that bad, you would not have left the property of the repairer.

And also, nice claim on AFF that your car got repaired by the insurance company but is on the written off vehicle register....
