Did you tell the insurance company about it when you took out the policy?
-
Even a non fault claim will put next years policy up, if its cosmetic then keeping it private should be a serious consideration......
-
if its declared yes your splitter will be. if not then no.
personally ide look for a quote in a garage you know is well, ring up the lad/lass and say you can either go through his insurance or he can pay to have the repaires done at the garage, make sure you know what garage so you know its getting done to a decent standard.
-
yes, insurance knows it has a body kit, also my insurance is cheap anyway.. well... enough..
i know the garrage i shall use, seen the quality and it is 2nd to none, but there not cheap.. bumper would need spraying i guess.. then boot? to blend it in ? as its plastic agasint metal?
-
Bumper only job.
Front splitter? Or rear?
I reckon it will go cash as he probably has a 500 excess and it will be around/under that.
Which is good and top man for offering him to pay cash. :smiley:

I'm guessing the car was pushed forwards into a pavement?
I'd go insurance personally.....i'm guessing it'll be rear bumper & boot lid as well as the front splitter being sprayed? Did you not have some paint peel on your boot anyway? Could be a good thing :wink:
-
Bumper won't be blended into the boot.
-
Well I ust found a boot in the same colour so now thaw fitted, but I know rhe guy at the body shop so might do the mk5 handle :)
-
went through his insurance, he gave me a dodgy phone number.. got a quote for £572+vat

What a dick!
