I shall eat my Irmscher Bublle hat.
I cant see why on earth they have quoted him 5k to fix it,
The chap at the bodyshop did say he would have to respray the whole car because of the paint,
however when he resprayed fitted all kit etc etc bad boys, that all cost 2k
so i dunno how he came up with 5k,
The front bumper dont even look touched?
Where did the car make the impact?
I think you should keep the front! not many cars at shows with the kindom front as much as there use to be!

the front bumper is cracked pretty bad in places, its repairable but will just take bit of time, most of the impact seems to have been taken the the crash bar like u can c in the pic and the slam pannel is bent down on the right side that should be sorted today tho cos gatted the jcb out to sort that! dad has had a go at straightened the crash bar also-laughting
just got me mirror ordered for the ice in jagcorsa to go on the boot pannel so u can c the subs from the front seats off the mirrow!

So you were in my manor to collect it? I saw your new Corsa being driven past me before the accident when I was at lunch one day and it was sunny, it looked amazing.
Got yourself a bargain mate

Nooooo get them horrible neon tubes hidden.
Get some cold cathode tubes and attach them to the foor lining, they will give off just as much light and won't be so obious
Visable neons tubes are a nono as they detract your eyes from the object you are trying to light

Iaz, with regards to the front bumper... Get your ass on the phone to Steve... It will make me cry if he does it, but needs be I guess...
Crash bar is £12 - I needed on on my car Slam pannel is about £15... The res is just a little bit of handywork - and possible some profesional painting unless you have the facilaties
