Default My Dad's my Hero!

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!
From this:



To this


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!!!

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!
