Hmm fair point
Hitting the tyres saved alot of damage though, lucky for some

yeah, but theres stuff you cant see like how the crossmember ripped away from the inner wing and stuff. It was proper fucked.
Makes me do a little poo in my pants when I think we drove to Germany and back with it all wonky

the front panel had allready been hit once, hence why the seam sealer exploded out of it and the spot welds were allready "broken"
im sorry very for crashing it, but in no way was it ever properly fucked

Yeah I know your sorry, and currently its your word against others saying its being crashed before. The only thing I know 100% is you crashed it by going head first into the tyres at Mallory Everything else is speculation!

the bent wing support and headlight surround/front panel were from this crash imo, otherwise the old wing wouldn't have fitted correctly previously, but hey ho, fixed now...

it has been crashed before i crashed it, 100%, for a start the old front bumper was a white one, the front panel has got grey seam sealer plasted all over it, doesnt make a diffrence as i royaly ruined it, but it wasnt concours before
but anyway, much to your, your mates and internets relife i wont go near it ever again

indeed fixed by a nice man, but as ian and smc will testify, it had a load of seam sealer all over it when we took it off, and it had a white front bumper, and it used to have odd headlights too
the wing/innner wing/anything over that side/proper front panel damage/third world debt/ bending was however deffinatley me
