I've dented my rear bumper, a week ago , by reversing into a car at the petrol station, and have come out with a ickle dent in my rear bumper, which im not happy about, thinking of replacing the whole thing but today i got a cheap quote from vaux so im unsure what to do

Now been quoted £200 from one bodyshop to have the dent removed & £60 from vauxhall to get it repaired (cheap i know!)

the dent you can hardly see, about the size of a golf ball

So do i get the dent repaired and buy the steiny rear skirts so it looks like this from the rear




or forget that and buy this whole new irmscher rear bumper (will cost more i think)

Dent in your bumper? Why not heat it up, ABS has memory I believe and it should pop back - thats what I did when I kissed a lamppost in my Corsa B.... Dont heat too much but try warming and pushing it from behind with palm of your hand...

Hairdryer works but wall paper heat gun is better...
