Any suggestions for the best place to buy another bumper?

It's MOT was up soon so, I was going to put it through another one, tax it, service it and put it up for sale within the next few weeks. Looks like I will have to buy a bumper as well.

I was going pretty fast aswell so, I suppose you have a point. I've sent out my requirements to 1stchoice.co.uk and have already received some decent quotes. I just hope the colour fade isn't too different on the new bumper.

"I was doing the speed limit officer the Badger was doing 90 in the other direction".

Top tip make sure you presure wash the floor of the car. My brother hit a wild bore as he drove across the Alps and bits of it were all over the rear suspension, diff and exhaust. I only found out due to the smell (I bought the car two weeks later). hurl

My mate reckoned he was doing at least 70 at the time, he said it was like an air crash bits of car and badger all over the road the AA had to do suspended tow too if it wasn't a newish car he recloned they'd have written it off!!
