What have you done to your MK 7 today ?

[Jim_mk7.5]

Had a run-in with a 1ft high small old fence post in the car park opposite work 

My first damage in quite a few years. And a really annoying one.

Anyone have a link to the front bumper assembly, will need a new plastic trim that goes around the front fog lights. And some paint 

Ouch..... not a great start to the week then!!

On the plus side at least the damage is low down and you don't require ANOTHER new headlight!! 

But the headlight was under warranty! And I ended up with 12 bottles of wine and a huge luxury hamper from JCT600 for all my troubles.

Oh now that's gutting. Hopefully not an expensive repair though.

I don’t have a link for it but i had to get a new 1 last year, i just phoned the local dealers parts department and they knew the part i was after. I think it cost about £35 to £45

Do you want to write me a letter of complaint, Jim

I'm from Yorkshire, Jim. We don't like parting with our hard earned pennies round here. 😊

Some lovely beading this am. Gave the roof a coating of Gtechniq C2 to try out at the weekend - this is a simple spray. Literally sprayed in on wet and wiped with a microfibre then buffed with another microfibre.



Thought I'd post here as sure they are plenty of people who don't want to get into detailing and this is very easy to use. Will see how it fairs in the coming months but this only took about 2 mins to apply to the roof. Might try doing it again when I wash the car properly.

Looks good Jim. It works very well on glass too, no problems with the wipers.

Sorry to hear about your incident, hope it's neither difficult nor expensive to fix

I did actually buy it to use on glass but was detailing a brand Amarok at the weekend so didn't get much chance to use it on mine.

Yes, an annoying scrape. One of those things, not done anything daft like that for many years.
