January 15, 200917 yr Author comment_307790 What kind of car was it, it did some damage how hard did ya hit it??? Might all well tell now :jamie: :| Hyunday Elantra wagon (speeeling?) of all things, thought they would crumble over the power of toyota. :yes: I was hardy moving, just not paying atention, as i was trying to get my phone out of my pocket, then acadently took my foot off the clutch, then BANG! :S :? I just yelled and hit my head on the steering wheel. put the hand break on and got out to talk to the lady i hit. I think i said sorry about 100 time in a minuite. She was so nice about it though. I don't think her car had any damage that i recall, and she has not rung up since the day after to talk about insurance and what not? This happend only 2 blocks away from my house so i just drove home, it was fine untill i tured left OMG it sounded like death, the wheel was rubbing on the guard, but since i only had 1 more left turn i just kept going. I couldnt stand looking at it so my friend picked me up and we went to where we originally planned to go, and ended up having a great night :hug: So deciding to do a respray of all the bolt on panels, so the will look overrated :y: Report
January 15, 200917 yr comment_308029 That sucks man just more uneccacary work that you have to do :y: , remeinds me of a time when i accidently run up the ass of a falcon (falcon had a tow bar to make things worse) in my celice as soon as i had let the clutch out, falcon stopped I was still going at a t inersection of all things, pushed all of the left gaurd back and i could hardly turn left or right without rubbing tyre onto gaurd. But good old toyota get out the hammer and persuade it back into place Report

Go white dash too :D White dash...do you mean the dash cluster (dials) or he actual dashboard, because i have thought about making the dial backgrounds white, but it is allot of messing about, and cbf at the moment. and there is no way i would paint my dashboard white, it would make it a wee bit hard to drive. car has hardly moved in a month as i have been away sailing allot(going again soon) thus nothing much has happened I still need a couple of pannels check WTB thread. That is all. Report
January 29, 200917 yr comment_312404 White dashboard would be cool. I've seen pics of people painting theirs tan. Report
January 31, 200917 yr Author comment_313049 White dashboard would be cool. I've seen pics of people painting theirs tan. I thought that would make it very glairy/hard to see. as it would reflect onto the windscreen. I think the rolla has traveled a total of 100km in the last month, most of that was today, soo hot Report
February 2, 200917 yr comment_313757 I was told that too, so that's what stopped me from doing it. But if everything is white, the whole reflection on the windscreen will be white, and you shouldn't notice it. Cause at the moment the reflection is black and you've learned to look past that. Well that's my opinion and I'd like to see how it goes. Plus some people have tan dashes and gray dashes and they come stock. Report
