Philbo Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Well, on my way to work this morning driving my reatta, whatever this thing is came off the back of a truck and rolled into my lane hitting the side of my reatta . Damaged the passenger side fender behind the wheel. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Sorry to hear that. Looks like the fender took a pretty hard lick. I guess the truck just kept on going and disappeared out of site as they usually do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philbo Posted March 31, 2022 Topic Author Share Posted March 31, 2022 Yeah. I honestly did not even see exactly which vehicle it came from. It was fairly congested too, which unfortunately ruled out most evasive maneuvering. Bad luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVES89 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Comprehensive will cover it. My car [the Red] was "shot" by a rock from a guy with a riding lawnmower. I was on a rural road with no shoulder to pull over with traffic all around so I kept going. Notified my insurance company and they had me get an estimate and paid 100% of the claim.

Only thing I am worried about is it destroyed the little trim piece there. Might be difficult to source a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ship Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) I found one on eBay for the right front qtr but it is in black. https://www.ebay.com/itm/174347864686?hash=item2897f14a6e:g:i1MAAOSwOgxfDH~J&vxp=mtr But I'm sure one of our Reatta vendors might just have one in stock.

bikern8 Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Always unfortunate when something like this happens....try to keep in perspective that it could have been worse. Looks like you will be able to get it back to the way it was. Let us know how you make out on the repairs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philbo Posted April 4, 2022 Topic Author Share Posted April 4, 2022 Well, got the appraisal done for repair. They estimated that the whole panel needs to be replaced. They told me it cannot be repaired since it is a plastic panel. He was going to try to find a replacement. I told him to look at this site and try contacting the vendors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padgett Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Reatta front fenders are the same molded panel used by Fieros and TranSports. Small triim piece is front passenger side only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
