    ACT: Repair/replace front-right guard on my R36?

    Hey guys,

    Now that I've settled down, I need your opinion/expertise on how to fix the accident I had this morning.. Swung the car in to a pole reversing through a carpark..

    Would it be best to try to find a replacement panel in Canberra or is there a shop that you recommend to do Euro paint/panel work?

    It can't be a simple pop out and respray as it's gone in enough that the screw behind id popping it's ugly head through the panel..



    Thanks in advance.

    Maclean,

    If you haven't got it sorted already, try Tony Farrugia Bodyworks in Fyshwick. Have dealt with them a few times over the years with various Euros, always been very happy with the outcome.

    I also have a smash related question: how do I get a quote if I can't take the car to their garage. Do they do call outs or can go by photos ? Know it's a dumb question but I can't afford to tow my car around to each smash repair place.

    Maclean, if you're still looking I've used Craig Hall in Phillip a number of times. He did a few jobs on mothers Civic and Mazda2, he also did some work on my old Fairlane and the Magna when it got sideswiped. I'm pretty fussy and can say he does nice work. They get the job done when they say they will, and they know how to use a phone to let you know where things are at.
