UPDATE!!

Assessor has assessed that it is to be repaired - looking at 6-8 weeks though

front Steering and suspension and rad and everything else up front! f00ked plus obvious body work (front and passenger side)

 

Any ideas if they will be able to keep/redial my prodrive settings though? They arent a subaru garage

Will they replace the front springs (if they are damaged) for the prodrive ones i have now? or will they put 'normal' ones back on

Is it like for like? I had STI wheels put on? i dont wont STI wheels on the back and wrx ones on the front do I?

 

Probably wont need to buy new tyres though as the front tyres (possibly rears) are buggered 

Fingers crossed everything will be ok fixing it and im back soon in my baby[:)]

Miss you

Mate - sorry to hear about the accident - glad to see no one was hurt - that's the main thing. I'm in the same boat although my damage is a bit lighter than yours and on the back end! Approved body shop quoted over £4000 to do the work and the insurance co said no as they said my car was only worth £2500. Told them to 5od off as I only paid £6495 for it a year ago. I am now getting a more realistic quote and going for a cash in leu settlement from the guy who drove into the back of me, so hopefully won't have to pay my excess and I get to choose who does the work. Time to mod it up a bit me thinks!!

If your insurance company new about the mods you had done then surely it's like for like - did you say that to the body shop when you took it in for a quote?

 Hope to see you back on the road soon.

Cheers,

Woody.

I have found repair garages to be quite open to the use of second hand parts if it increases their profit margin, over the use of new.

A BRAND NEW Subaru (Subaru NEW Prices) wheel and front bumper will be considerably more than a second hand repainted complete STI front bumper and sone refurbed/replacement front STI rims.

 Just a thought! [:)]

Just noticed your thread,  bad news that, hope your ok.  Just out of interest were the tyres Potenza Tyres, I always thought they were run flat.  I'm gonna go with a different type if the run flat design doesn't work.

Not had chance to read all through this thread, hope the car is fixing up ok.

Cheers
