yea i had to sand the paint a bit wth some 2500 wet and dry to get the reb and blue paint from the lorry off it. managed to get some of the dent out with my hands and the bottom off a set of crutches. Got a replacement light aswell. But it still doesnt look to pretty. And will probably need a respray :(

What you've done so far looks pretty good. Hope you get it nailed soon.

what makes it worse is the lorry driver drove away while i was left facing oncoming traffic :evil: didnt even try find him, nerves were through the roof and legs felt like jelly. The back wheel must have bound on his lorry cause the back end went up in the air then when it cam down the car spun out :( :cry:
anyone want an s-spec for £1000 :lol:

not a bad job on the repair as it looked like quite a bit of damage in the pic
ive had a slight scrape with a lorry at some traffic lights when it was taking a tight turn and its a jobby the bed moment when the car gets rocked from side to side and you see that the wheels of the lorry are bigger than the car....god knows what that must have felt like if you were moving and in traffic :(
mind u i went mental and went after the lorry - got in front of him and got him to stop - offered him a square go but he wouldnt get out his cab :? I reported it to the police but they did nothing :roll:
