To even up the sex argument - my car was backed into by an exceedingly old man the other day. Driving a brand new Celica (and they complain about pensions).


I prefer the proper lights to Morettes anyway so imo she did you a favour. (sorry)

well i prefer the morrettes so anyways she is gonna pay for it to be sorted just gotta find the new bits.
didnt think it was too bad until my painter looked today and pointed out the cracks that are just behind the finishing trim on the top of the bumper so all in all so far without the headlight bits and the finishing trim its coming in at Ł250 at mates rates bet she wished she looked in the bloody mirror, gotta try and get it done for bodmin on the 8th of june as well

Bad luck that. Id be gutted if that happened to mine. I remember when a mate reversed into a mates car and bend all the headlight and bumper in. A bit of pulling and pushing sorted that one out though. I actually reversed into a mates work van when i first passed my test. It was almost new at the time and put a 12 inch scrape down the side! He just said dont worry about it, and said someone did it in a car park the next day!

Anyway, just stick standard headlights back on there mate. I think they look better anyway, and youll save your mate some money at the same time so everyones happy.
