Guys,
Really in need of some advice here as i'm not sure if i'm having one pulled over me. Details of the accident are here http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthread.php?t=11270176 Its currently being repaired but 2 things I need advice on badly. I'm way out of my depth on both the experience and technical side of accident repairs and only have common sense to rely on. 1) The front bar (not sure if this is the correct technical term) wore the brunt of the impact. Being a structural part of the car I was under the impression this would need to be replaced as it would compromise the structural integrity in any future impact. Well I was told today by the repairer that it has just been repaired (without removing it) rather than replaced. See pics below. Is this safe?? Should I be concerned about this?? Before:  After:  2) I am still after advise on the broken engine mount. Is this a common thing to burst in an impact? What other damage could it cause? Any and all assistance or suggestions greatly appreciated. |
