Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I was driving today and some stupid casey donovan look alike slammed right up my arse. Im glad because i already had a stuffed rear bumper which is now even more stuffed. However, previously my fuel tank was also dented and i wanna say it got damaged so i can get a new one on insurance. It goes to the assessors on monday. Does ne1 know what i can do to make it look like the impact dented my feul tank? This is serious and i would be grateful for any help. Thanks

I think insurance assessors read the internet, too.
You probably just signed your own gaol certificate.

what colour is the car that hit you?

find something the same colour and scrape it all over the tank =) haha say it went under you...

why not be honest and pay yourself for damage that was your responsibility.

..and besides, it's a dented fuel tank, nearly everyone on here has one

mines missing about 3L... perhaps more.. its not pretty under there! =P

better off leaving the tank till youre realllllly sick of it, then put a bigger stronger one in.

you can always claim its a custom bumper and needs to be custom made again... get a nice new ass for it?

I cannot imagine what kind of impact you'd need to dent the fuel tank.

Just grin and bear it like the rest of us do and put up with the dents - at least you don't have to commit fraud to do that.

PS I don't think asking for advice on how to defraud insurance companies on a publicly viewable internet forum is the best idea

was it the Australian Idol one or the porn star one because it makes a big difference in your story

And to the question. Not a good idea to ask how to defraud an insurance company also as stated very hard to dent a fuel tanl unless it is the back but to try and convinve them the underneath was dented from a rear end shunt isn't going to work

I have about 1/2 the capaacity left in mine, the previous owner pushed the bottom right up into it. Hopefully ill get a new one soon.

I dont know if vitara tanks are stronger but mine (sierra) crumpled when I was rear ended. Her car needed a tow, the only other damage to mine was didnted bumper and smashed tail light.
