More like "What someone else did to my MK4 today"... I was driving home last night along Centre Rd in Bentleigh and someone was kind enough to throw something at my car! I suspect it was a can considering the people appeared to be drinking on the street. I pulled over to find a small golf ball/hail sized dent on my bonnet with 4 deep scratches to go along with it.
I was going to drive back as there were only two of the summy c***s but I saw 3 other unsavoury characters join their group. I decided it would be best to just call the police. The people were long gone when the police arrived so they just took photos of the damage and they're going to send a report in the mail.
Anyway, my insurance excess is high so can anyone recommend a good place to get the dent pulled out and respray?MK IV R32 - #117

Today I bought some auto glym bodywork shampoo conditioner some ultra deep shine and some glass cleaner. Will be a busy morning of cleaning tomorrow. Also finished colour coding my valance - did the front today.
Also lithium greased the brackets that hold the rear seats in as they creak like a boat.
Hopefully that'll fix that!Last edited by JustCruisn; 28-08-2010, 06:35 PM.Platinum Grey mkV Jetta turbo, Viezu motorsport map, GT-CX 18", lowering to come

Currently waiting for up to two hours (called just after midnight, stuck in Chatswood on my way home from work) for a tow-truck.
The left-rear damper has come loose completely from its lower attachment point, and is now dragging on the ground (and its attachment point was also hanging dangerously low).
I didn't hit anything big, just came around a corner and there was a clanging sound like something metal hitting the road. Thought maybe I'd flicked up a wheel weight or something similar off the road surface, but continued slowly, until it came again. Got out and checked, and sure enough there it was. Will upload a photo later.
To say I'm unhappy about it (given someone worked on the car to replace the suspension just on two weeks ago) would be a gross understatement...Nothing to see here...

i'm always putting the back seats up and down to put my mountain bike in therefore the hinges/brackets on the back of the seats were getting very worn..
