A Tribute

I couldn't resist. After the last post "Crash!", I had to show you my baby in her full glory.

Ladies and gentlemen, a tribute to the sWISHbrade.

** Sidenote added on 31/12/2006 : I collected my ride yesterday and it was perfect! The guys at Bluwel did an excellento job. And for the price they charged me (fraction of a new bumper), they will continue to get my (Mr Ngeow) business from now on! Thumbs up Mr Kenny (Ah Soon), and thumbs up for Justin for the excellent recommendation!

Here's a picture after the repairs. Not bad eh?

CRASH!!!!
It was a catfight! And my mistress lost, when my wife banged her head against a metal pillar on 20th Dec '06. Dammit! Why do the men have to suffer when things like these happen?
My mechanic gave me an initial quote of about S$500 but called in later to inform that he had needed to do some structural re-alignment of the front part of the chassis. In other words, he said "you are gonna have to eat instant noodles for a loooooong time boy!"The mechanic told me that he would save me some serious moola by attempting to re-mould my bumper and will re-spray it, so I didn't have to change a brand new one. "Will look 90% new lah" he teased...

Saddest part is, I know that sWISHbrade is never going to be the same again.

I will be collecting her from the mechanic tomorrow........I feel like a husband fetching his wife from the plastic surgeon's clinic. Damn it! I hope he did a good job.

On TV, housewives go under the knife and come out looking like Baywatch bombshells. Maybe my Toyota Wish is going to look like a Lexus tomorrow! While I'm keeping my hopes conservative, let's see what happens.
