Gutted, i knew i was too low!! it happened.
« on: April 20, 2009, 01:57:29 pm »
Pulling up outside tesco on my dinner and i clipped the curb  :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:

was very embarressing as there was about 10 people quing for the cash machine and about 20 other people stood around chatting and shopping, then crunch and all eyes were on me, i also had that LMFAO tune YES full blast  :ashamed:

il let the pics tell the story!







so i jumped back in the car and drove straight to my body shop (who im very good friends with) who still had my old splitter, so he is going to get it colour coded up for the weekend free of charge so at least i wont be coming to players with no splitter.

so what are my options now?? anybody know of any smart splitters that dont require you to be a lottery winner to be able to afford them?? how much is the OSIR one?? i dont want the reirger one  as its just too low, but looked amazing!!  :sad:
