well... some berk crashed into me...

i was driving behind, he indicated right, pulled behing some parked cars, as i came past he pulled out without indicating and obv without looking, and hit my rear quarter...

im worried the subframe has been affected, a friend who is a mechanic says it looks out of line... so now im worried that he is gonna be written off... the guy has offered me cash... he was in a courtesy car, "the same thing happened to me" he said... yeah right...

so im thinking if i can find a good cheap shell and rear subby, ill re shell the bean...

it is worse than the pictures make out... doesnt really show the dent....
