This morning I went down to my garage & saw my GV driver side door has been side swiped.
It happend last night when I took my daughter to her Tae Kwon Do class & I obviously missed it then because it was too dark.


I am livid at the ass licking dog who did this!!!

So how is this best repaired? It's actually a gaping hole, not just a scratch.

Fucking assholes!

Is it worth casing the place out for similar damage to another car next time you are there?

I think those side bits are replaceable, should be able to get some from a wreckers.

me Missus bought one of those new Daewoo (Holden-together) Cruze's and within the first week of takin it to a shoppin centre and parking it well out on the out skirts of the car park, some douch bag slammed their door into her door and make an inch and a halp long dent by about 1/3 inch deep...

$200 (cash in hand job) later the dents still there but its 100% better than it was, but the shit feeling still there that it happened...

Mate you find em and ill do you the favour, nothing a ball peen hammer cant do to a hand to mend the mind of how monkey fu&ked people are at driving and driving off after they do shit like this...

theyre "body coloured bumpers" on the doors...

and that sucks - like said before though - search the carpark next time you're there for someone with white paint/damage to their front end at that height!

Checking the car park is no good, no cameras either. I parked next door to Repco, so there would've been heaps of cars coming & going. I was there an hour & a bit....So it wasn't just people from Tae Kwon Do.
But I'll scope out some cars next week, just in case.


Now my next question, how are they best removed? From the outside or do we have to remove the interior door panel & look for clips?

Thanks guys.

normally you can pry them off - and theyre held on with clips, so you're bound to break a few (add that to your parts order).
