[Beaver]

ouch. how the hell did you manage that/car isnt even that low?

[karmagedon]

I forgot about those centre islands at pack 'n save. drove straight out the parking spot, until I got stranded.

[Beaver]

sorry, but thats super lol.

but seriously, it looks fucked/might just be a trick of the eye

[My name is Russell]

oh bugger! I have done that at upper hutt pac save also

[EvoBilly]

well the page title does say 4wd spec so it should go off road every so often

just when you think somthing cool is going to be done to the car somthing else happens to full up more pages

hate to say it but i had a car that did the same thing and they failed the wof on it

[treggo]

nek minnit

..

[Truenotch]

not good man! Jacked it up to inspect yet?

[Jase]

that's buggered fella it'll need to come off and to be rewelded back once sorted or replaced,you'll never get a wof or cert like that

[karmagedon]

Yeas it will defnitally fail on a wof. LUCKILY, i got a brand new wof about 15min before this happened, so I have 6 months to save to fix it.

From anyones experience, will bolt on frame rail supports be a valid "fix"?

something like this that will bolt over the entrire length of the rail?

[CaMpylobacter]

lowl. you diddle.

[R100]

In my MX5 i removed the seats and carpet. Then put the car up on the hoist and comletely cut my chassis rails out and had sum new ones bent up out of 4mm steel and welded them in. A couple of coats of underseal and they looked mint as. Removed seats and carpet to avoid a fire. Reason i changed my rails was to enable a gearbox xmember to bolt to them. But thats another story.

[Jase]

short answer NO,

is it insured? cos if it is and its legal at this time i'd be getting them to sort that out,

tell them you backed over a brick left in a car park or some such
