Driving to my girlfriends mother's house, and ran over a small roo :( I checked the damage and noticed that the rear body kit has been snapped :cry:

I'll take some photo's tommorrow.

Anyway does anyone know how much a replacement back body kit HBD (the piece that surrounds the exhaust pipe)will cost :?: I'm expecting it to be about $500-600.

A plastic welding place would be able to fix it up...

Probably best to fix it yourself rather than claiming on insurance if its less than about $600 to fix.


Cheers,

Luke.

Well let's just say!, when I stopped the car the smell from the exhaust pipe was like a four'n'twenty meat pie. :shock:

Holden has been telling me that I have to buy the whole body kit, because they dont sell it in pieces, which I think is wrong. :evil:

It doesn't look that bad, but pictures never do justice. Probably would be cheaper to get it fixed. Barney, your in VIC yeah... i'll PM you details tomorrow of somebody that'll fix that up for ya.
