Silverstone damage!

[Lordyb]

Rage!!! Went to asda to get dinner tonight!! And reversed out the stupid parking spot, and there was a black bollard thing in a place I never expect it to b and didn't see it at all! Made a bit of a mess of the wheel arch and front bumper!!! It's pulled the black trim round the fog light off and the join on the wheel arch is not 100% connected.

I don't think there's any paint damage, these bollards are mainly rubbery type material and I think all the black scuffs will come off!

Will have to look over it in the daylight 2mo!

Not very happy though!

Tough break mate. Hope it's an easy fix

 

[weebob]

Balls.

fingers crossed its not too serious

 

[tommy89]

Don't worry, these cars are tough. I hit a small dear in mine and there is no paint damage. had a smashed fog light but that was a bolt on part.

I'm sure at worst it will need some small plastic connectors holding the bumper on


fingers crossed!!

Yeah, not impressed! Lol. Will get pics today wen I go have a better look at it!

 

[weebob]

hows it looking fella?

 

[Lordyb]

No pics. As there luckily ain't too much to c! I have re-attached the fog surround and the join on the front wheel arch is needing ever so slightly straightened up, some how??

And a clean and scratch removal polish type thing and I should be ok!

Fingers crossed. Will keep uz posted!

if your not in a hurry, I have a dual action buffer with pads and compounds etc, so could have a go at sorting any scuffs and lining it back up when I'm home

They're robust machines these Twingo's. I remember I hit a fox in mine about three weeks after having bought the car. I was nowhere near my destination and there was nowhere safe to stop, so all the way I was dreading seeing the bumper but about 40 minutes later I arrived and found there was zero damage, just a bit of gore and some dead fleas!

If that's anything to go by your should be ok.
