Just finished repairing lower part of rear n/side after yet another idiot hit it a couple of nights ago
thought i could knock it out from inside boot area but no access there, so self tapping screws and a tug.....this is the 3rd time we have been whacked during the night...last occasion anus was driven into from behind actually breaking the welds on the tough crash bar ...must have done a lot of damage to their vehicle ....its such a pain having to put it in the garage every night

Re: More damage by others
If i had the equipment ,and learn to weld, then I make up something similar.

Re: More damage by others
A few years ago i pulled up in traffic and a few seconds later BANG from the rear....the car that hit me had broken lights ..little wipers laying in the road..great these welded scaffold poles ..i asked him what the hell are you doing as i was stopped for a few seconds...he refused to answer me....bus driver next to me slid his window open and said he was on his phone..... all the same if i had been on my motorbike......loads of expensive damage to his vehicle GOOD
