As some of you will recall I had a too-close encounter with a step a couple of weeks ago. Well, while I was in Ireland my Dad repaired my Bumper for me himself and had a friend paint it. Here are the results!

Granted I still have to get a new splitter but considering the state it was in, I am well chuffed and he saved me a couple of grand anyway!!! :smt055

Cheers for the comments guys, na my Dad's cool that way. He's had many an off in Sierra Cosworths, RS500's, RS Turbos, XR4's, XR3's, XR2i's and BMW's so he's a dab hand now with a bit of fibreglass and cataloy (sp!).

He actually enjoyed doing it again and was quite fussy when he came to finishing it off before it got painted. I did tell him that I wouldn't have any work for him anytime soon though as wasn't planning any 'incidents' anytime soon!
