Hi All,

It's not my weekend this weekend! Having a few car issue's and my granny has had a stroke - oh well. I bought a Honda Civic Type R last week, which is sn amazing car but have already put a small dint in it above the fuel filler cap and have now put a massive dint in the bumper. To cut a long story short I was in a petrol station with my mum and was reversing and ended up reversing into a bin trying to avoid my mum. The bin came off better than my bumper.

As you can see from the damage it is quite big. The bumper has taken all the damage and there is no damage to the bodywork (whats good). I would prefer to get it fixed rather than go through the insurance. I was wondering if anyone knew of anygood body shops close to Farnham in Surrey or if a mobile repairer could sort it? Also I was wondering if any of you knew how much it would cost to get repaired? I could go through the insurance but would prefer not to if I can.

Cheers,

James

TGM in fleet are excellent.

TBH you'll be pleasantly surprised how cheap a new bumper is from Honda direct. It'll come already sprayed and jobs a good 'un. The expensive bit is the Type-R lip, but that doesn't look damaged. So just switch that to the new bumper and off you go...
