Crashed my car :(

[Tez]

Well sort of. I was coming home from work and driving into my driveway. I caught the passenger side of my car on part of the gate and scratched her into to the metal all down the passenger side door and rear quarter.

Rear quarter is dented and the rear bumper is hanging off on the passenger side. I'm gutted. Have used T-Cut on the scratch and most of it has come up ok. It's scratched into the metal though.

I'm completely gutted. I've spent the last 3 months since I got her trying to fix all the little bodywork problems and now this happens.

I suppose it comes with being a new driver.

I've used some more t-cut colour wax on it and it has filled in nicely. I've managed to clip the bumper back on, and it's just a little out of line now.

All that is left now is a nice dent on the rear quarter just infront of the arch, and the indent into body where it is scratched. It's sort of bent the metal.

A guy I play football with is a bodywork specialist, so I'm gonna ask him what can be done. Hopefully he will be able to pull it out for me and fill in the scratch. A respray isn't going to be too cheap though .

The good news is, I went around the car with the t-cut colour wax and all the little scratches have disappeared nicely. My car looks loads better apart from the new damage I've done. I've just got a couple of stonechips left on the bonnet which I'll fill in with touchup paint tomorrow.

I'm hoping my marea console parts and bonnet lifters come soon as well , and depending on the cost of the repair for this, new speakers are next on the list. Time for some overtime methinks.
