Enjoy :)

Horrific story.

Read two pages then skipped to the rather nice looking pics on the pages mentioned.

Not got time to read it all :rolleyes: but did they sue the bodyshop and are they still in business?

Not sure exactly, think he took it to a civil court? and got $7500 , could have taken it higher, but didnt have the time, even though he'd get more money, will make for a day when ur really bored :P

That guy has to be happy, that dude didn't use nails or welding instead.
Wood plate  :evil:, damn, that is unlikely to happen even in Russia.

I know it may seem insane from my side, but those photos made me laugh.

WTF :scared:

Reckon the body shop had done all their practice on Need for Speed, then discovered that the real thing is so much more difficult than clicking on Install on the PS3!
