I’m looking at some comments and wondering if those making such comments actually have cars lol

Personally I’d never patronize all these road side panel beaters that’ll charge 5k and do a job so shoddy you even have more problems I.e na screw em fit go dey use hold bonnet lol

Even the way that car bonnet pressed the OP never inspect the engine area to be sure all is well.

awapp:


Make a budget of 100k to fix the car BTW who send you message to repark car wey u no sabi drive

True friendship ke... What happened now can ruin their friendship

only a woman can talk like this because most female friendships are superficial. Yes, he will be angry (normal) but it cannot spoil friendship except they were never really friends to begin with. Like i said dont make the mistake of fixing the car without his permission, explain to him you didnt fix it because you wanted him to see it and be the one to decide how his car will be fixed and pay the cost of fixing whatever it may be.

@ miranwa
Don’t fix his car without his knowledge. Get his consent first, so you don’t end up worsening an already bad situation. Before you call him though, do thorough assessment to get a good estimate of cost so that he won’t panic too much when he learns about the damage.

Which kind consent? Did he drive the vehicle with his consent? There is no worsening of any bad situation,oga.

I beg fix the car and tell him what happened.You gain his respect and trust,,after all no body is above mistake.

What is the essence of letting him know the estimate of repairs he never prayed or budgeted for?

Do you know the extent of expenses he must have incurred going to the village?Now a friend would add on top?

If he has the capacity and willingness to refund him later he would surely do it.

Fixing it and telling him brings a lot of respect!

Call your friend and inform him..

Don't fix his car without his knowledge please.

If he gets to find out later, he would never trust you again.
I was about advising same. Call your friend and explain to him. He might be very mad but he won’t kill you. Just be prepared to foot the bills for repairs when he comes back or if he gives you a go ahead.
A bad panel beater & painter will only succeed in ruining this car.

Fix it before he comes,but please make sure you let him know what happened. Then apologize!

With that you earn respect and trust.


If he has the capacity and willingness,he would surely refund you later,as a friend .After all,no body is above mistake.

Budget surplus like N25k, enjoy the surplus later smiley

Anything above 25k, DM me for cheaper links,Lagos only.

If you are close to Gowon estate near egbeda Lagos ...I would 've connected you to a qualified panel beater that will fix it like factory follow come. ...so far the two head lights are intact , except you intend to change the bumper .and bonnet ...A good panel beater will fix both bonnet and bumper without replacement.

Infact budget 12k for painting if you intend to paint rough area...and panel will take like 15k ......in fact with 30k. ..you are good to go

Just immediately after tinubu market (after gowon Estate police station) right?
