Twinkle Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 plonker all do it at sometime m8, any damage?
Durham Fiesta Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Posted January 22, 2008 thing is i drive for a living and drive an iveco daily through tight stuff all day and i've never hit anything and i reverse an escort van into a car. I've never looked at my van but doubt its touched , but i hit the pug where the towing eye cover is , right in a weak spot and its put a crack in it. Hope the bloke who's son it is don't go mental and kill me
Durham Fiesta Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Posted January 22, 2008 any ideas how much you's think it'll cost. Loads of these mobile repair people reckon cracks can easily be fixed. anyone used one or had a cracked bumper repaired??
Copey Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 oh dear!! if its only a pug its not too bad, be a cheap fix hopfully!
kirk10 Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 i do it mate for a living will be around 80 quid ish for repair crack and paint
Durham Fiesta Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Posted January 22, 2008 thats not too bad, just gonna have to see what bodyshops round here quote. The lad hasn't rang me yet
Durham Fiesta Posted January 23, 2008 Author Report Posted January 23, 2008 still haven't heard anything from him, called round tonight to see if he was there and the car has gone. If it was me i'd be straight on the phone if someone cracked my bumper

pauln Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 i feel guilty as fook though Thats very honest of you. Most people that do that sort of thing (often) just drive off. Well done for your decency .
