Bumped!

[mdonohoe]

Somebody bumped into my parked '06 GTi today!!!

Guess what? They managed to "bump" the drivers side front bar, not damage the mags but have busted a FMIC intercooler pipe!!!!!!

It sounds like a worked skyline but with far more noise!!!

Incase anybody wanted to know what it feels like to drive with a rooted intercooler pipe/intercooler.

1) Can stall
2) Sounds like a big truck
3) Hesitates like a SOB!
4) Big freakin marks on your front bar!

Lucky they were insured. It's gonna be expensive, I can feel it!(for them).

Oh well!

bad luck buddy! ... atleast u know what your car would sound like if you transplanted a rb-series in it lol

At least they stuck around, could have been worse and you have to pay for it. Hope it's a painless repair. Who's your insurer?
