Yeah good idea. Should be resonably priced

 

& refurb the wheel

 

Well, you could actaully buy an S2000 for the cost of your excess.
Then you'll have a whole set of spares for when she does it again at Christmas.

 

 

Ouch....

 

hmm.. to do a top job i've never seen a price below

 

You need to ensure that you get the suspension and wheel alignment checked.

 

She moved out of the way of an ambulance and drove into a plastic bollard - not giving those far away front wings enough room...

South Cumbria mate - just below Kendal

Well update is - Honda want to go insurance route - want to do a proper job, new wing, new alloy etc... lots of dosh...

Accident repair independant said

 

Yes, fairly easy mate.
Bolts on, just have to swap over the badges and indicator.
the inner plastic arch just pops off mostly.

You'll need to spens a little time realigning the new one and this doesnt always seat quite the same as a new one.
Hard to tell if the one you buy is repaired anyhow.
There arent many virgin cars out there tbh.
I would dress, skim and paint for simplicity.
A good panel beater will make short work of that job.


Did it hit a kerb? If so that may have done some substantial suspension damage.

 

Kerb - Not sure, she can't remember - however she has been known to miss out important details when it come to fessing up - so I would have thought probably yes - either way I'll get geo/suspension checked as well....

Decisions decisions - I think a good panel beater should be able to sort it - but if I go insurance route, new wing/alloy is appealing despite potenital premium hike and hopefully none problems that an indepandant might give...
