I probably have both. Will be in touch on Sunday after assessing what I need to keep, and what can get the biff!

pulled up at the intersection and he ran out slapping his hands on it, So its rippled badly now.. I've got him to agree to pay for it which is the main thing.

doesnt sound like much.....if you get another bootlid, it wont be mint either.....so it'd need panel paint e.t.c.
so why not just fix your one? lol

I took it down to the panel beater, he told me that amount of time it would take to get it straight again would be cheaper to find another boot

Maybe since these panelbeaters all think it would be cheaper to find another boot than to repair yours you could ask them where them reckon you could find one? How much are they quoting you to get it repaired?
