So, it being a nice Sunday, decided to blast down to Porsche Tonbridge to have a look at the new 991.

What I didn't plan for was reversing (at about 5mph) into a bollard when I left - DUH!

It has creased the rear bumper - and the paint is off - are the rear bumpers repairable? Or do I need a replacement?

Maybe I should drive it more often!

Really need a photo to tell. Second hand ones are pretty cheap on Ebay though.

I have had my bumper hit quite a few times in motorsport and often it just pops back into shape. If it's a crease, you may be OK. Not worth going to an OPC, any reasonable bodyshop will do.

If it turns out that it does need a new bumper, there are always loads on ebay
