He hit you from behind, his insurance company is going to buy you a nice new kit or repair the one you already have to the state it was in before he decided to kiss your ***

Maybe he was testing his unrestricted speed limiter.

Most people never get glass because they believe it's going to explode when hit. Looks like it held up fairly well.
Sorry to see this happen to you. Lets hope your not out of action too long |

have a look at the back panel.. try to get your spare wheel out no doubt it will be stuck in there check the rails and see if it's straight.. there will be alot more to it than u actually see.. even the boot gaps to quarters

just think, if you had no speed limiter you may have gotten out of the way in time....

That will teach you for having altezzas!

Looks like there's a lot more damage hiding underneath your car dude.
2 to 3 weeks repairs and a mid to high four figure sum quote I reckon.

As mentioned there could be more damage than you 1st thought.
One thing most people overlook is that a hit like that can force the tailshaft into the gearbox at the input shaft causing metal shavings to drop into the box. I know people that it happened to, as well as working for BTR for sometime. These metal shavings then grind your nice expensive gears some 3 months or so later, and so a seemingly unrelated gearbox happens that was caused by being rear-ended. The way around this is to make sure that the insurance company is made aware of this potential additional item so if it does eventuate it is covered and you don't wear the cost that this peanut caused you.

there seems to be a few posts about his speed limiter in this thread and i was part of the thread the other day and i could be wrong here but i dont think having a speed limiter or not having a speed limiter would have stopped the guy running up his A$$ i could be wrong though

why did you swear at him? what happens if it was an honest mistake/accident? would you like it if you stuffed up and someone got up you?

make sure that the panel beater checks behind the bar. i had the same damage in an accident once and although it looked ok, there was structural damage behind the bar!
