just after football i got a phone call off my mum saying while she was at work someone has crashed into the backend of the micra, so i went down and had a look, it needs a new rear bumper (as the mounting bracket has snapped) and a new driverside rear light. so it dont look like iam taking the car to thorsbey(but will still be going with silver_si). i know the guy who did it and he offered to pay for the damages plus we will get some clear rearlights out of it ;)

p.s will get some pics up later.
 
here is a pic of the damage. i think it looks worse than it actually is. i hope!!! lol

mate i know how you feel, i got my car all ready for JAE and then some biker hit me!!

surely you could sort it yourself? we if you were me you could but then i don't suppose you have a shed full of spares lol

good luck sorting it mate :)
 
i could sort it for him, but it's just caught the rear 1/4 aswell, since the guy who hit it is paying, might aswell get it done properly.
 
just go news today that its going into nissan on friday. i wonder how long it takes nissan to repair it? guessing it shouldnt be long.

Yearh mate will still come up in the weekend to have a look will bring the money with me.

And thanks everyone for the comments!
 
got the damage sorted today from silver_si's brother, who is a paint repairer. he's done a top job for £585 less than what nissan quoted, and it only took him about 3-4 hours not days like nissan would've.
getting ready for jae now! Tommo's old 15" alloys on, damage repaired, clear back lights fitted and front megane splitter fitted, silver_si has got the front grills off and he should have them meshed and ready to go back on in a few days, then just got to wait for the laquer to dry so i can fit the mudflaps back on tomorrow. check out the pics.
