icon8.gif  I HATE ROO'S now with pics!!! Sun, 18 April 2004 12:51 Go to next message
i was driving home from sydney tonight and this dirty great roo jumps in front of me at 110Kph whilst heading up the F3 freeway to newcastle. needless to say i couldnt do much befor whack no more drivers side front bits and the bonnet latch let go and it hit the roof!!! Shocked . luckily it didnt smash the windscreen but its done some damage ....
jetspeed front bar- anihilated
all lights on drivers side- smashed
intercooler- twisted
radiator- multiple punctures
front grard- crumple zones work
bonnet- shaped like front of roof
grille- cracked
shiney chrome strips formerly on grille- spread all over road

the roo... well ive got a chunk of it stuck to the front of the drivers side guard. didnt have a torch to try and find it in the scrub just off the road to see if i could put it out of its misery Evil or Very Mad


but at least i can re-airbrush the front end like i was going to with the new bodykit bits i just picked up Confused

just got these pics uploaded

(how do i get these to appear in this message like flynsx's pic? )

big spots would have been just another thing broken on my rolla cos when a roo jumps out of the scrub 2 meters off the road theres no spoting it any sooner than .5 of a second before its done over $700 worth of damage Crying or Very Sad

The reason Alainve's car wont cost as much to fix is because he is painting it himself(and it gives him a good excuse to change the theme)

lol u got to b joking me u think because he is painting it that its only going to cost him that much hahaha the parts alone will cost more then $700 new front bar bonnet guard lights parkers thats over $700 already then straighten the radiator support might b chasie damage as well a hit like that from a kanga u dont know what damage it has done.

i dont think he is including the cost of a new front bar as he had a spare. and i think he is still chasing a new radiator. the rest of the parts are costing him around $700 so he will probably be up for more like $1000 Rolling Eyes

so far im up to $450 without the radiator no front bar included and no paint included in that
i did say over $700 cos at the time its roughly what i was looking at and sounded like a good number Razz
taking all into account its going to easily top $1K Crying or Very Sad

ive nearly got all the damage fixed now and it has totaled up to a little less than i thought
parts all up are around $700
since im repairing the jetspeed front bar ive cut down alot there and ive done all the straightening myself and have alredy got the paint.
im just thinking on how to rework the airbrushing to suit the new theme

i hit quite a few damn roos in my other cars when i lived in WA. bit of a problem when you lived out of town on a farm. got one in the 260Z once, the fooker flew right over the roof. only caused $400 of damage though, needed a new bonnet anyways.

but the worst collision i had was with an animal was a big dog in my mr2 in Darwin.
