Lucid,
Yeah bugger it I ain't gunna miss out coz some other dickhead got his licence from a wheatbix packet. I'll just beat everything sufficiently into place for the cruise then go about getting quotes after that. Ta.
Toby,
I just got an email back from Adam at Lander Toyota who has offered in another part of the forums to help out people with geuine parts etc. (Cheers Adam ) and the bumper, grille and bumper mounts only add up to around $390 plus still getting price for two headlights (that'll be the expensive bit).
I'm gunna try and insist on new and genuine parts as the other party have admitted liability and said to submit a quote directly to them and they'll pay for it.
Done the Police thing. I don't care how minor a prang is I'll always report it just to have it on record in case things turn into a shitfight (which it invariably does when you're dealing with a Council / govt. dept.). Witnesses however are a problem as both the car turning right that I was going around and the car the pulled up behind me didn't bother to stop. After exchanging details I drove up the street where the other car had turned and knocked on about a dozen doors where there was a car parked outside and it looked like there was someone home but couldn't find the car that was beside me, turning right. Hopefully this won't be a major drama as I spoke to the Council's insurance dude this morning they have already received the accident report from their own driver which they say is consistant with my version so they have said they'll pay for it. SOUNDS OK so far!!!
Julz,
Bugger!!! Oh well let the hunt begin (no pun intended Toby ). I already had a spare driver side light in the garage so I only need the passengers side.
