Was out for a drive the other day front underside got caught in snow.

Reversed without knowing this was the result

Ahh sh1t Mike

I have no problem believing how easy it is because I have done similar in less expensive cars. Does it require a new front clam?

Yep. Whole new front clam. I'm going to increase the right height slightly as that will help in the future. Any hill or incline will make me wince in the future

Oh bolloc ks - How fannoying for you.

I don't suppose a few cans of P40 & a surform file would fix it? I mean, that's all it was in the first place...it'll need to be filled with P38 & painted, but...£4,500 seems a lot for something that doesn't have bumpers.
