tailgate - crunch

Post by nosnibor »

I hate bollards :frown:

Crunch - anyone know of one (tailgate 406 '03 estate, silver) ? I need the offside tail cluster too. I think it will be cheaper to replace the whole tailgate than repair the old one. It will need repainting anyway. :(

Most bollards are fine... it's the ones they decide to put up that only stick up a foot off the ground that are an arse. I mean WTF? Sainsbury's by me has the things. You just can't see them :evil:

Ah yes, my housemate took possession of a silver Rover 225 in pretty good nick. Tried to leave the Tesco filling station and her driver's side had a little chat with a bollard.

As a result within a week of owning the car her door was staved in (with the handle now broken on the inside) and she had yellow racing stripes right down the side. Oh, how we laughing.
