Straightened out the front number plate bracket, appears someone has reversed into me and not left details. Paint off in the air dam and a small gouge next to the number plate. Karma will hopefully do it’s thing. :evil:

They were probably driving a big ugly SUV and did not even notice that they hit something.

Spued!!
Went out and took the covers off after yesterday’s hail. Bonnet damaged even though it was in a carport with two blankets and car cover on it.

Aluminium bonnet
Pretty unlucky as hail is heavy and falls straight down (must have been windy).

Took my car to Dent Bros here in Canberra today - 3 hrs later all dents removed! Hard to believe especially with alloy bonnet which doesn’t have memory.

Ground the horrible dumb bolts off the ECU cover on the SE. Didn't set the car on fire which looked like a possibility, had the extinguisher ready just in case.

Sending the ECU away tomorrow to Chip torque to get reprogrammed for the new bits.

Nitro Dan exhaust and CAI, Walbro 255 fuel pump, 440 injectors and not ordered yet but will be, a bigger intercooler.

So the SE will end up sitting on stands until all the bits arrive back. No interest as yet in the SP even with a price drop. Everything sells eventually though.
