Is it fashionable to damage Hondas lately?

-Neil- · 21 Jul 2007 at 16:03

It had to happen sooner or later, my first bump since I started driving in Feb 04.

Totally my fault, underground car park with sunglasses on coupled with the fact my car has the turning circle of a oil tanker and a long bonnet. I took a gamble on whether I'd make the space in one turn and scraped the front bumper on a concrete pillar

Oh well, the bumper needs a respray as it's a bit scruffy in other places. Also it's the perfect opportunity to have some rust removed from the inside of the wings.

Easy fix, stop whining

At least the bumper is undamaged. I also was considering a front bumper respray and having the apron fitted properly with scuffs repaired before my accident

you got off lightly my confrontation with a concrete pillar was a little less fortunate.

Is this pillar ok?

Unlucky though, I scuffed my front bumper on a (v high) curb not long ago

Edit- you bought a smaller front plate then?

don't you remember that one being posted?
there were a LOT of members posting the same sentiment as you.
that's a LOT of filler. i'd be getting the magnet out and checking the rest of that car to be honest.

Out of interest, who are you insured with Neil?

I ran a few quotes on 'Tegs and they were all expensive, ~1750 being about the cheapest with 2ncb!

Prefer the UK look over the JDM and i imagine that they are slightly easier to insure.....

Thinking of chopping the Rover in for one?
I'll be at the Manchester meet so if you don't have one by then or haven't been in one yet you can have a ride in mine if you want

my car is made of filler

it had been hit there before, its also had a front end shunt and a rear end shunt so filler all over the place. still u can tell to look at it, unless u get a magnet out or start tapping around and find hollow bits. Those were all cause by past owners not me. With the exception of the image posted above.
