matt
thanks matt i would really appreciate that ...
nah its not supposed to sit like that. ther aint supposed to be that much of a gap. get them to re-attach it again
mine sits liek that because some jackass hit my car..
yeah that ain't right, the gap should be even everywhere.
a bit of gap is normal, but that is too much mate, get it readjusted
mine has been hit from behind, thus panel beaten + respray gap looks similar...
It depends if there is a gap at the back. Because the bar is really only attached in the middle, so if there's a gap there you can tighten a screw to make it fit tighter.
But if there's no gap at the back, and its just the sides hanging a bit like in your pics then theres not really much you can do about it I dont think. . . .
hey guys i dont think im really worried about the gap anymore ... got bigger gaps now

how the hell u manage that? lol
WTF didnt u just respray that? Thats just sucks!
it gets worst ... you should see the front of the car.. it got written off =o( ... i have the worst luck... this was the day after I got it all resprayed wax, buffed & polished.. =o( im getting a new 1 soon ...
oh geez. Hey dude was it ure fault?
If not, get a lawyer, cancel the insurance, get a re fund, get the car valued by insurance, then buy it, then get the car valued by an independant valuer and then claim it all back.
Then sell the parts!!
dude, thats amazing, quite extensive damage though.
Out of curiosity can you buy the car back from insurance ?
if you can id be interested

man howd u manage to do that... hope it works out well for ya..
good luck wit the gap..
jk lol
an insurance company is stupid, they work to save themselves money and they have no real vested interest in how much you get for your car. My insurance company valued my 96 vtir at $500 after a crash. This is how much i bought it for.Quote:

Plus since i wasnt at fault my lawyer claimed his fee + assesor fees + towing + $15000 for new car + transfer fee for new car.
If i were to leave this with insurance i wouldve been about 5k down at the end to what i was...will take alot longer to explain the entire process, if you are interested, let me know.

whoa. .... bad luck dude. ..
condolences.
some insurance companies sell the cars off through auctions i think. .. nram sometimes auction their written off cars at pickle auctions...Quote:

i see your trying to give advice??? lol
The reason why your bar has that much of a gap is because that piece of metal that runs inside the boot which consists of 4 bolts and lies within the black plastic sheet has not tightened enough to hold it up high. I was about to suggest tightening the bolts BUT i saw that second pic!. Anyways, feel sorry for that R... hope you get it fix soon.
are you talking about the black plastic behind the rear lights??....
please delete this thread .. im over getting emails about it ... thanks.
