    What's more disturbing: The wreck or these two? Is THIS the best the Ausi's have to offer for car show bimbo's? At least in the US, the chicks are hot that strut around car shows!

    Gee, I thought they were quite attractive! I saw pics from a car show in Chicago where the bimbos had cankles and looked more at home in a trailer park. :)

    Yikes... devastating.
    Well, if the Husker "Lemans" grill comes out soon, there will likely be some taillights and grilles available soon.
    I see rear bumper covers on ebay all the time.

    I agree 100%. If you cannot afford to fix a car, you should reconsider borrowing it. I would be curious how this accident happened as well. That point has been overlooked also.

    At the very least, you need to fix this car the right way, which is not always the cheap way. The right thing to do is explore both options and then ask your friend, 'Which option would YOU like for me to do,' and do that. I was on the receiving end of this situation TWICE THIS YEAR with friends driving our cars and damaging them, one of them to the tune of almost $10,000. Everyone says 'I will pay for it' until they realize the actual costs of their stupidity. Your friend, his Ferrari (whose value is heavily maintained in the meticulous care of the car), and his insurance rates should not suffer for your driving. Again, speaking first hand as the friend paying higher insurance rates because two dip$hit friends damaged our cars, do the right thing. They had a bad DAY, and now I have alomst TWO BAD YEARS of higher insurance rates because of them.

    Look it up in Websters, and you'll see a picture of Hillary in a skirt.

    ur missing the point... im not looking for a botch job... but if something can be repaired? then why not... if it is in the condition it originally was? if a rear bumper is 2nd hand and spotless.. then why not?>

    ok... time to sort some stuff out...

    ok first of all the girls... well... they arent always picked on looks... the black haired one is a friend and apart from being a nice attractive girl she has a killer natural rack....

    now look i dont want a botch job... it is my responsibility and i am putting myself in my friends shoes... so i would like it done properly but at the best price without corner cutting.

    as to the post i had before... she had a linkage problem where a screw or something fell out.. so i made an account... to ask u guys for any ideas... and just siad it was mine to save any questions etc. now my friend lent it to me and i asked if it was insured etc... but IT WAS NOT insured for me... the owner only... iw as not advised or else i would have NEVER driven it... but what is done is done.. the past cant be changed and at the end of the day it is my responsibility to get it fixed... legally i have no real obligation so dont u think i should get some credit when i could easily shun responsibility?

    so ricambi and ebay arenanswers i have so far... whats happening with this custom grille or whatever that one of the members here is makinG? if it slooks the goods i would be interested!

    and as to how it happened i was overtaking a pick up and we both swerved to miss a kangaroo and my tires skipped over the camber... ( i also didnt know the pirelli p zero's were 8 or so yrs old!) so they didnt hold one bit/// back end out... and i was facing back towards the pickup... i corrected but clipped the pickup as i straightened...as he was on the centre line... could have been worse... so im lucky in that respect... and besides my friend she is not confident in driving it herself... so whenever we go anywhere she gets me to chaueffer her around... so she wants me to drive it...

    so bottom line is...
    i was unlucky i crashed... not a consequence of stupidity
    i am manning up to make surte its fixed properly
    so if u can help me out and not **** on me... it would be much appreciated... thankyou...

    I am the one who told you Ricambi and ebay. Last night on ebay USA there was a rear bumper for 348 for sale. unpainted.
    Get that and then contact HUSKER to get his rear light mod, and then let us know what else you need.

    Talk to Daniel or one of the guys at Ricambi. They are fantastic.

    The main thing is Fabian that you and your passenger were NOT hurt in this crash!! :):)

    The car can be fixed, always usually is. :):)

    Unless you want to sell it to me? I could do with a parts car. ;);)

    Glad to hear you are not looking for the cheapest way out. I was a bit afraid you were when you posted " or preferably any 2nd hand ones in good condition?" In any event, it is true that most important is no one was hurt and that ultimately no opinion matters other than the cars true owner. I do not know the laws in Australia but in the US you would have a legal obligation to repair damage you caused and not just be able to say, hey I could have just walked away so I deserve credit. Anyway, I believe you will find people here are willing to help without a bunch of questions no matter if you are the owner or not so there is no need to mislead about who owns the car. Take care sir and good luck with the repair.
