Ouch Craig  :sad:  I'd get it repaired if you can, I had a new bumper and it cost me £500  :angry:

Yikes, I'm hoping to avoid that type of bill Mark

It's a small scratch at the end of the day. Just about the most minor damage possible that you could present to a body shop. Any body shop that quotes you for a new bumper for that kind of cosmetic work I'd be very very wary of!

A small scratch to some, a fecking major eyesore to others, namely me. One way or another it will be fixed. I was just venting my anger at the time.

Good news pal. It's definitely repairable and the estimate was just over £100 so pretty happy with that. Keith reckons it will take a couple of hours so hopefully get it booked in for some time next week  :smiley:

I'll need to order a new grill as well and get that fitted
