Sorry to hear about the damage CG. I hope it doesn't cost too much to fix. You must get it fixed in time for the 2010-2011 vote on next years award winning FL2.

Fact is it will be fixed, same as the poll, so technically it should be disqualified. |

If you park at the wrong end of an empty carpark for a couple of hours it is gauranteed there will be at least one car parked next too you when you return ![]() Park a rusty old banger in a similar situation and there wont be another car near you later, they will be at the other end or even another carpark - strange but true ![]() Stornoway Grey with Ebony Black Pleather, Clear Indicators, Body Side Mouldings etc. |

I totally agree with your logic here but these days,especially in council car parks, which are monitored by some jobsworth contractor on bonus, they will fine you for just about anything.They love it when your tyre is just over the white line. |

I recently met a mate from years back, found out that he now does 'smart repairs' for dealers. His van is rigged up as a mobile spray shop. So he is going to repair my scratches for £40. I watched him respraying a bumper on a friends car and doing a fine job |

Well, he came through, car fixed very nicely for £40, He ground away the surrounding paint to remove the scratches, mixed up a colour matching batch of paint using a laptop in his van, then sprayed it on, perfect match |

With being a black one I wouldn't bother to much really after all in a couple of days it will look dirty again and you'll never notice it anyway. |
