FFS why even bother....

Argh, people that do this **** me off. And you just KNOW they would have hit it in their piece of turd (my guess is a crap town car, or people carrier) and just gone "oops! Nevermind, probably won't even notice, just a small bump". And then driven off.

EDIT: Just seen this in another thread, and THIS is what the driver would have said in their head as they hit your car: "its just a car, don't have time for this"

Thanks for the comments lads, really have lost faith in many people these days. Maybe punching their child in the face whilst proclaiming 'It's only a child' would learn them a little

Nobody breaking one on ebay or forums with an intact bumper? Might be cheaper to find a decent replacement.

Oh and +1 on the local village salon with the fitties. £10 and an eye full plus some decent conversation too. Shame they don't do 'extras'.

Bumpers are selling for around £200, with scuffs and chips. Dreamers!

This cost me £300 to repair, no new parts, just repaired

At a local bodyshop place

Ahh yes forgot about your repair good effort and the spraying looks great. Need to sort my black plastic part that effectively reinforces the bottom lip as mine has broken plastic mounting there. So possibly pepair and glue or jsut cut it all out and put some sublte black mess aroudn the mouth of the bumper. Not decided yet though.

i expected salons from smart car owners but not a proper type R driver

bad news with the car though. i hate the general public's lack of consideration for other people's stuff

and @ Dup. Good to know I'm not alone here. Untapped potential there, but alas no happy endings

A typical ITR driver has been well documented and desbribed as:

DC2s are for forward thinking hardcore chaps, the kind of people who would think nothing of disarming a terrorist about to blow up a tube train, to use themselves as a human shield and even after the explosion and subsequent injuries, find time to adjust their clothing to ensure they looked good. Then they would pull a survivor of the attack and take them home for a damn good rogering.

EP3 drivers though:

EP3 owner would stand behind you during the attack, lean out from behind you, shake a fist and say "YEAH". Then slope off with a fat bird who was a bit dazed from the blast."
