Going home on Friday and reversing the KG up the driveway (so the carby doesn't leak overnight) it was raining and I didn't see my wife's car. Slamed the KG in the wife's bumper bar :mad::mad::mad::cry:cry

Ouch, not good!!!:(

How hard is that to replace?:jesus

shit dude, :o


karmannghia60 - September 29th, 2003 at 09:29 AM

Bloody hard and expensive. This was the original not a repro. I guess it could've been worse if I caused panel damage


jenz58 - September 29th, 2003 at 09:34 AM

Good as far as no panel damage

Didn't think I could see any:thumb

What does she drive? Trying to imagine height of her bumper and what car was.


karmannghia60 - September 29th, 2003 at 09:36 AM

280SL, and yes its higher than the KG

Ghias sit nice and low, so I guess most cars would have done it:(

Good luck with finding a new rear light:sandrine
