HOW MUCH!?!?!?!? (Must Read)

Funnt story.

This morning on the drive in, i was making a right turn from one road to another. I was looking to me left and creeping out when the dreddid sound the everyone cringes to here filled my cabin. BANG!!! Thats right, I gave it to the guy in front of me Greek style.

Didn't hit him hard but enough for both of us to get out. All I was thinking was "Here we go" To my supprise, there wasent a single scratch on neather of the cars. WOOHOO! I had hit him right where our headlamp washers are located. The little 2"x2" door had cracked in two pieces. (no big deal) I said to my self.

The guy I hit was cool about it and said "Dont worrie about it" and drove away.

I get to work and call mazda right away. The guy on the other end of the phone starts to laugh and says the part for the lil 2"x2" door is $109.00. I said W H A T! ! ! He said it was because it came pre-painted. WHATEVER!!!

But still, you'd have to consider yourself pretty lucky to get away with $109.

Helas, how come you're always hitting ****?! LOL!!!

And yeah, that sounds about right for the little headlight washer... those parts do come prepainted and they're a PITA to install...

Have you ever tried to spec out main washer jets... on the FD they come prepainted as well... I forget how much but it's not too far from your headlight washers...

Helas, you got off easy. Consider it a warning my freind. You can't play "Be my Greek Boy Toy" with every Tom, Dick or Spiros you see in front of you on the road!

Glad to hear no damag eand you and your 8 are safe.

HAHAHAHAHA Thanks guys. hahahah I went after work today to pick up my new investment and they were like "Oh do you need us to install it for you? We'll cut you a break and only charge you 1/2 hour labour" I said NO! Came home and it was installed in litterally 30 seconds. Gotta love Jap engineering:
