Man so sorry to see that Tadz,
I've had something similar happen to me but not that bad yet. Parked in a visitor spot for all of 30mins, come back to the car to find a lovely door dent from the person that was next to me opening thier door into my car....
Definately feel your pain, I'm sure you'll work something out nicely.
+1 to ofey and PMR for thier generous support.

I feel for you mate...
On a little detour, looking at the damage.... I reckon some people can do it on the cheap without going through insurance!
Looks like a job they can beat out (rear quarter panel), and filler it, and have it looking new again. The rear bar also looks like it can be heat pressured to form back into place.
This would save your premium going up and also may save you money from the excess. Have a chat to the beater, see if they can do that.
Normally if insurance purposes, they wouldn't use filler, they'd just replace all. Which is good, because you get your RA rear bar and stuff, but you suffer in the premiums later.
Hope you consider it.

he shouldn't suffer in his premiums... he wasn't at fault.
plus, for insurance sake, it's better than he goes through and pays the premium, because if anything happens in the future and the find that he didn't get it done properly... it could be ugly.

It is quite difficult with the time it takes to do that panel. You have to rip out the back seat, and there may be a chance that they have to unweld the panel to beat it out. (my car had same panel smashed by QRX truck, only difference was the truck cut right through the metal and it had to be unwelded and new one welded back on. That took a long time on its own) Get it done by insurance. You can't afford not to with future problems that could be involved. You won't get that done for less than $550.

Re: Tadz is in Disbelief...Broken CJ ='(
Dude that soooo sux0rz! Important thing, it's fairly minor and repairable and still you can drive the car around and it's doesn't look too retarted.tadz0rz wrote:So we took the truck over to the new place, unloaded all the stuff and drove back over to pick up my car and the cats. Ive unlocked the doors to get the cats in the car, and my alarm pager went off letting me know that the alarm had gone off. So i go over to the car and was completely shattered when i saw the drivers side rear quarter pannel and bumper...
Console me pleaseeeee!!!!!
Srsly tho, you're in a new (I assume quietish) residential street and someone backs into the car whilst parked on the street. So it must be either an across the road neighbor or one of thier vistors backing out of their driveway? Can't be a random person doing a u-ey. Don't know if it's worth the bad relationship with new neighbors, but whatever they did or one of their guests did it's a dog act.

Tadz is back in business!!!!
To everyone here at clubCJ, i am overwhelmed by the support i have recived from everyone. As many know, probley not the best point in my life at the moment, and my CJ is the only thing that brings a smile to my face at the moment. Just sadens me every time i walk past it i look straight at that dent in the side....
@ Ofey:
Irving, i cant thank you enough for the support you've given me and the rest of the club. +999999999999999999999 from me mate. This thread should be shown to anyone who doesnt believe ofey to be a true and honest man who only wants to look out for the best for the ClubCJ members.
Ofey, would you able to PM me the all the part numbers for the rear bar for the RA and Captains VIN number, it would make it easier for the smash repairer to order the parts if i can get him everything he needs. Saves him a bit of work aswell.
@ Captain:
Captain, Ive only met with you a few times and havnt really had a chance to get to know you too much but i really do thank you for offering your VIN number to make me able to the the RA rear bar. Im heading down to the smash repair place today to get some stuff organised.
@ Nick from PMR:
If i cant get the rear bar from the RA, im going to more than interested in getting the PMR kit from you. Whether or not my insurance will do the entire kit i dont know...We will have to find out. If the RA bar falls through, ill be in contact with you straight away about organising the kit.
@ Everyone else at ClubCJ:
Guys, you have no idea how much your support means to me, especially at this time of my life. Dont mean to get all sad and emo about the stuff but it really does. My car is one of a few things in my life that makes me truley happy and for to see her in the condition shes in just hurts.
Not to mention she has been used like a ute the past 2 weeks carting stuff to our new house. Shes a pigsty inside. I think im going to clean her out today to make myself feel a little better lol..
On other news...
Ive got my internet back up, my roommate has been very accomodating and has let me connect to his internet for the duration we are living here, at no charge for the moment.
Again, thank you to everyone who has shown support for me, it really does mean alot!!
