HI All,

So my Kizashi got a little dinged up tonight while I was reversing into a parking spot in Manly.

Didn't realised how long the over hang was and next minute i hear a horrible crunched sound, went out to check and the spoiler is quite badly damaged.

Below are some pictures from the aftermath. :(

This may sound like a stupid question, but roughly how much do you guys think it will cost to get it fixed up, don't really want to go through my insurance.

Is it only the spoiler- you were very lucky if that is all with no boot lid damage?

The most expensive bit will probably be getting the spoiler painted to match (for a decent paint job that is.)

Nah no paint damaged or dent to the boot.

Just the broken spoiler and top brake light.

Got a friend which work for a big Toyota, Suzuki, Merc and etc dealer, so he is getting a quote organise for me. Hopefully I won't be out of pocket.

Definitely not going back to that car park again lol

Manly! Someone near me with taste :lol: I'd say $400-450. The spoiler was $420 (in 2011) at Hornsby but they seem to charge a little bit more than everyone else. Any carpark in manly is hell.

There is a Suzuki wrecker in Adelaide that has a white one in stock. I bought the boot lid last week as someone scratched my boot lid with a knife He gave me a trade in on my boot lid and the spoiler was perfect. Maybe worth a phone call exclusive jap parts www.exjap.com.au/ Regards Steve

They're not far from me and I've dealt with them in the past. Hopefully their prices are a bit more realistic these days? ;)
