      Gutted for you, but at least your 'mate' is going to pay for the damage he's caused.

      You'll still be ready for the Lakes
      Cheers

              insurance

              it is insured as being restored so i'm not too sure how i'd go about claiming for a mate driving around and not using my van as a brake???

              he has said he'll pay for any repairs so i may just leave it at that

                      Wings and nose should repair up nicely looks like its split on the join, my kit has had a lot worse repaired and you could never tell

                        ouch

                        spoke today, going through insurance, spoiler pushed back & up causing wings to fold upwards and back, arches are bowed out about 2" either side with 1" opening at the A post base. bumper has damage to indicator mountings but chassis brackets are fine, i think it all went through the spoiler to the winds so under the skin is ok.

                        gotta call insurance tomorrow and get inspected the see.

                            quick fix

                            over phone he thinks it's more labor than parts, pain to rip kit off the fix cracks and re-fit. simple....

                            he's gotta do some touch up work on her after putting her together anyway so a little easier for me. just have to paint a little more than expected.

                            he reckons the nose will POP back out as kit is holding it back and simply repair cracked fiberglass & re-fit & paint
