bashed the near side rear wing in today on a bloody fence post.
towing a trailer full of shit with a flat tyre and got pulled into the gate post and took it out!
not a pretty site!

One of the locals here advised me to change the tow bar for one that sticks out more, he's either seen my driving or it happens all the time here.

Wings are just bolt on so look up Mitsi Bits and buy a pattern one, only thing will be the plastic arch, they are harder to come by and dearer.

Lez, I think he may mean the tub mate, could be wrong though. Anyway, don't tell me there's a part that someone needs that you haven't got a spare one of?
HC , I've got loads of dings and dents on mine, I think they add character and I remember each one as if it were an old friend . Having said that , if it's a badun you'd best get it sorted bud

OK say no more.........missed the word rear..................... how did I miss a good rear ........... just sooooooooooo unlike me to miss a good rear............ back to the topic at hand....sorry.. as it goes, if the tub is totalled and pole-axed, there is just a tiny chance that there might be one available............

Sorry to spoil the fun there Kurt......

When I reverse into a lampost I have the piss taken for almost a year, but when someone else does it they get "sorry to hear that bud"

some body filler & body putty, primer & paint mate & it will be as good as new

#14 by skotl , Sun Jul 15, 2012 1:04 pm

That's cos you were reversing into a lampost in a vain attempt to knock the pink paint off

Just realised that I'm untouchable now that I'm in the Bin

#15 by LezT , Sun Jul 15, 2012 1:07 pm

Would'nae push it Mr Skott..................... Life could be attained in the Bin, and do you realise that your post count is also reduced whilst you are binned....
Ere' Kev, I think that some poetry could be in order here, don't you think..?
I think something pinkist is required......

If it was that easy, wouldn´t you have changed the colour of your truck by now then

Sorry to here that 123chef. Like everyone says, just as easy to get a new tub, plus if you can get one in the same colour, jobs a good ´un
