Drove back from Brighton this morning to Essex and some f#ckin monkey in a transit was too busy eatin his butty that smacked into the back of my oak green valver....................his excuse was "sorry i was miles away" C#NT.
I had just slammed the valver 80mm+ so was decked........therefore his bumper didn't even touch mine, just went straight into the welded panel between the tailgate and bumper, thanks!!
Luckily the valver is made of stronger stuff that his wreck of a truck and only had mild damage, only slightly dented the panel.
Anyone have any idea how much that part would cost to refit, spray etc, as i don't want to claim if its going to write off the car innit.

lookin around 100£ mark depending on how badly it is...
best bet, take it to the local body/spray shop and get a written quote...

I got quoted £300 to have a new panel painted and fitted that i supplied, it may be cheaper though as i was getting the edges smoothed into the 1/4s
