Not so little, that looks nasty, is it just the bumper thats damaged bodywise?

If you need a rear subframe BOOBOO had one for sale, maybe with the extra suspension and brake parts you will need.

Avoid insurance IMO, should get it all done for under

Looked like it was MCB in the first photo.

My renewal's coming up, hope this doesn't affect S2000 premiums

Not claiming on my insurance!!

I've fitted a new hub, lower wishbone, rear disc and suspension leg already (All brought from a scrap yard)

My new alloy wheel should arrive today (which is a Kato Sukumo)

Yes luckily it was just the rear bumper, missed the wing and rear light by milmeters.

I would expect it to cost a *lot* more than that to get it done properly.

Agreed there, total bill will be 4 figures

Do you know where can I get the car set up properly agian in Herts?
