Carpro in Penrose are very good and also very well priced. Got them to do quite a lot of work for me on bikes I have rebuilt as well as cars I have had work on.
How did you slide into someones parked car? Low side around a corner I am guessing?
Practicing wheelies perhaps?

It generally involves falling off the bike, followed shortly thereafter by a demonstration of the fact that plastic and aluminium have significantly less grip on the road than warm rubber.

If you had insurance you wouldnt need to find a cheap panel beater. Id be pissed is someone hit my car and did a 1/2 assed job to repair it because they were not covered with appropiate insurance.

Sometimes ShitHappens.
OP requested assistance finding a panel beater not an epicaricacic orgy.
(D'y' like that ? Huh? Huh? I finally found the English translation of Schadenfreude !)

I had to go look that up.
I have no enjoyment in his misfortune (although I would get enjoyment from the orgy bit assuming I could select the other parties)
I was just commenting on the fact that he is looking to get a cheap panel beater as opposed to looking for a good quality panel beater.
So he manages to ride into a parked car - and the poor git that owns the car gets a cheap job done on it - Id be pissed and Im sure if it was your car or bike you would be as well.
Just a curiosity...
What car was it?
