Not nice to come out from a good night to find some scumbag done that to your car, bet they were over the limit or not insured

Sorry to read that... :-(

I am always worried of those things when I leave my cars.

Some people just don't care and should not drive at all.

Hope everything gets sorted quickly.

Cheers,

Alex

Sorry to read this. A common experience these days sadly.

Had two incidents like that in recent years, one with the CSL but not as bad as that.

It would be good to catch the cunt but thats life today there is a lot off numb nuts driving now

Looks like an easy repair but to do it right wont be cheap

Absolute toss pots. Gutted for you.

Have to say though, looks like there was some filler in there already from your pic.

Just got back from seeing my friend, he got his mate over who runs a bodyshop who have a superb reputation.

Basically he said it would be £1k to get the damage repaired, this would involve the panel being beaten back out etc.

He said he wouldn't advise a new panel being fitted as lose the originality on the car.

Obviously wheel refurb on top, plus he said he can do the front bumper (stonechips) and re-lacquer the front using a ceramic clear coat lacquer which will be better and tougher than the OEM so I'm going to get that done at the same time.

Yeah he confirmed there was some filler there, not good!

That was an expensive pub dinner

£1k repair my arse.

Ask him if he thinks filler keeps originality?

If he charges 1k and he does front end then that's an ok price, but 1k for rear quarter repair?
