Damage to car
« on: January 12, 2015, 10:02:09 AM »

What a great start to a morning.  Cyclist crashes into side of my car as I remain in stationary traffic.  Then cycles off - grrrrr !!

Wing mirror damages - indicator and glass as far as I can tell. 
Scrap to passenger door - don't know if it will buff out.

not sure of exact damage as the car is dirty nor where to go from here  :(

Feel your pain. Hopefully it's not too bad as first thought. Wrong place wrong time- with a numpty on the bike.

What wrotten luck eh?  >:( That is just pants! The only options you have IMHO are to leave it as it is, claim on your insurance or get it all fixed at your expense. That's it. Your pain might be eased slightly by getting2nd hand parts off eBay. Good luck.

Images are 'Dropbox' ones...which are not hosted the same as
Photobucket, hence why they can't be seen.
