   Hello,
   
   Im really annoyed at the moment, last night i was picking up my girlfriend at her parents house so i parked up and went inside, when i came back out i found my car had been hit by another car and they left, so now im gonna have to get it all fixed and dont have the cash!!!!
   SO ANNOYED!!!
   
   Damage from what i can see : -
   
   Front bumper need replacing
   Wheel arch need replacing
   sideskirt looks like it needs replacing too
   and also maybe the drivers door
   
   after i get all the parts it will need spraying and blending in,
   
   for that amount of spraying would it just be worth getting a full spray?
   its blue at the min
   
   also does anyone have a salvage vts that has these parts intact that i can buy prefer if it was blue so it could save me some cash until i can get it re sprayed.
   
   thanks mike

   cant you claim of your insurance mate, and got to a scrappie mate, posi blue is most common colour, can fetch all of that for under £100 and should be in reasonable nick, good luck man

   my excess is too high, and dont want to go through insurance as my premium will go up and would have to get rid of the VTS if it went any higher and dont want to sell it - Love it !!! ha
