driving around the carpark of the Bankstown Sports Club on the way home after dinner, my girlfriend (driving) cut a turn into a down ramp a bit tight and caught the right rear wheel on the concrete curb. This would have been fine except when reversing she mistakenly turned the wrong way bottoming out the skirt on said curb. To make it worse, when trying to reverse off the curb she rolled down the slope a bit. I might have gotten a bit verbally anxious at that point :oops:

She got a bit upset that she had damaged my pride and joy which took a while to calm her down from. She then later revealed she had during the week bumped into the shelving in her garage when reversing in. Silly girl - I would never have noticed the couple of extra hairline marks and paint split on the bottom of the rear bumper :D

There is now some nice rash on the bottom and a little on the side of the skirt. It's not clearly evident unless you are looking for it though. Fortunately no structural damage to the skirt

could have been quite a bit worse I guess. I'll get it repaired sometime. No skin off my nose the way it is at the moment though

There's one at Rosehill beside Hooters. Not all that close though but about as close as I can think of. Don't know of any in Silverwater and none on the major roads in Auburn or Lidcombe.

Which way are you coming from? there is also one at Burwood on Parra Rd city bound. There is also a mob in Strathfield/North Strathfield near the old Arnotts factory where the American Auto parts store used to be but I don't think that is DIY. And another on/in the Rhodes shopping centre - again I have no idea whether that is DIY
