GUTTED!!!!

[Vtec Abuser]

 
Just on way home earlier on our local DC and a hideously MASSIVE piece of what looked like MDF came flying up from under the car in front and introduced itself to the front of my beloved car.. After cursing just about every swear word in the english language and probably a few others, I eventually pulled in to inspect the damage... Not good!
From what I can gather..
N/S Headlight... FOOKED!
Bonnet... FOOKED!
Front bumber... Needs paint
N/S Headlight washer... FOOKED & missing (probably scattered on the A46 somewhere
Front Grill... Cracked
Piece of trim next to Headlight washer... Yes you guessed it... FOOKED!

Spoke with MD already and plans are already in place to get it sorted and i'm going to see my local Bodyshop man tomorrow first thing. Will also get some better pics up.. (Just got this one for now off my phone)



Only just realised it's come out blurry so you can't see much, but get the idea..

I've got no interest in driving or even looking at the car at the min and just want it back to normal ASAP.. Just need to find the A HOLE who's lorry the wood fell off and remove his scalp.. 
Not happy!

Gutted for you mate, could have been alot worse though it could have come through the windscreen and done you some damage, and the fact your company will sort it is a bonus

Bad luck mate. Hopefully not too much of a problem and should be fixed OK. I'd definately go for a new bonnet as that looks twisted and unlikely ever to go back to normal.

Any police traffic monitoring cameras on that stretch of the road - report it to them, you just might get lucky.

Cheers guys..  Like you say Gaz, it could of been worse. It did actually hit my screen after bouncing off my bonnet, but hasn't cracked it..
Think the headlight is going to be the most costly. Any ideas how much they are chaps?

Gutted for you fella 

[gazbutmk5gti]

No idea, bet there's no change from 150 quid

Not good chap, hearing about any damage to a GTI is bad news,    it'll soon be fixed and your ok 

[Hurdy]

Really sorry to hear about the damage It must be the undercover ED30 number reduction unit having another pop at reducing our numbers

Like Gaz said though ....it could have been much worse.

Not good mate, hope its sorted soon

Sorry to hear about that vtec! But like that others said it could have been alot worse considering it did hit your windscreen. Might want to get that checked out too, from what I remember about my physics lessons a polarised filter should show up any stress points on the screen.

Hope you get it sorted soon mate!
