Unhappy How much ...

Checked the search engine and there's nothing recent ... it's all front ones for some odd reason!!

Am going to need a new one and presumably a respray after an altercation with a concrete-like Seat Leon

Slight damage to this one, but a decent body shop would be able to repair no doubt

So long as your plate holder section is still okay, you can easily re use that if you got one of those eBay ones.

LTB - That second one looks a bit like a Nurby blue. Hard to tell from those photos.

hon (Dan that is .. not the rest of you!! ~

Yeah .. I'm OK, it was the poor S that suffered sadly.
Worst thing is there was only one person responsible

Reversed out of my parking space, careful to avoid the Corsa parked behind (on the left had side of my car), whilst commenting to Paul "Ooooh look at the dent in the back of the Corsa!", and didn't see the dark blue Seat that was parked in the space on the right in complete shade!!!
The worst thing is that the guy who owned it came down after I fessed up and said "Oh dear .. I'm only visiting for a couple of hours .... there's never normally anything parked there!" .... like he needed to tell me that!!

Result Seat Leon with very small dint in bumper v S2000 with completely crumpled right-hand bum cheek

if you buy one second hand make sure the plastic clips (clips- not sure what you call them) are undamaged when the bumper was removed from the car, they tend to break and the bumper will stick out at the side, mine has this and is doesnt sit flush at the side where it meets the side panel, it niggles me evertime I wash the car!!

If I could turn back the clock, I would have bought a brand new bumper from Honda, I had my rear bumper resprayed and it was a complete PITA, even the bodyshop said that painting those bumpers is a nightmare, as the have type of gelcoat on them and once the bumper has been stripped down the coat is removed and its a sod painting them again, my paintshop guy had to paint my bumper 6 times and its still not 100%, I know its great to save money but I would deffo get a new one, they come primered from honda for
