hey guys as i was thinking about how other people might not be so lucky with leaving their cars outside over this weekend with the wind i felt bad for them. thinking of how safe i always am and lucky to have my car in my shop most of the time. i had my car on the side of my shop this weekend so i could do a clutch on my friends evo... 8hrs of work! so i finally go to get in the fd and put it inside on the lift again and i see all these pieces of plywood that were on the side of the garage ontop of the car and the side of the car! i was more discourage by first looking at the car and not seeing the cover on it but the wood!!! so the dammage is the passengers side mirror broken dents in the door and rear quarter. the drivers mirror acually got caught up in the cover and held it from being taken away but it really beat up the drivers mirror mount aswell... with that being said anyone that has taken the mirrors off will know that there is a piece of pot metal with two bolts into the door itself and there also is two screws into the base of the mirror shaft. the pot metal broke and the mirror is dangling on the side of the car! im also thinking that the drivers one is on its way out the door cause it moves with like a whole inch of play. i was wondering if anyone has a spare set off of a car that they would like to donate or where and how much i could get a set for both mirrors? hopefully noone else had any problems this weekend... any help would be much appreciated.

 

wrong place to post a wanted to buy but oh well. I have a passenger side vintage red mirror for sale. pm me if you are interested.

 

wasnt looking into buying... its just a general question with a story involved.

 

I have two brand new Fd mirrors in the box!

 

That sucks. Of course, if your car had been inside, those sheets of plywood would not have landed there.

That's what comprehensive insurance is for.
