Im so angry right now
like seriously, i never get angry but im raging Got my exhuast system done at redmans exhuast in Hervey Bay today They somehow screwed the latch up for the bonnet I drive home Bonnet flys open at 60k's it wasnt open in anyway, it "looked" fully shut like normal but when i was almost home, it flys up and i hear a sickening crunching noise Its twisted the GS bonnet and slammed it back into the body work I drove it back home at 20k's to stop it from going up again (it wouldnt shut) inspected the damage At the hinges it had bulged out and cracked the paintsomething chronic so i thought hmmm ill just loosen the bolts and move it foward so i can close it and get to work So i started loosening the bolts and one of the fires out like a rocket and the bonnet just bends to an angle At this point i woulda smashed the brickwall next to me but i had to get to work and mixxing ice cream with broken knuckles is a no no You might not think it coulda killed me but given the circumstances it could very well have been a lot worse, and ive had a mate who has had this happen and it smashed his windscreen, cutting him all over. Going back to the exhaust shop tommorow to Raise hell
