Stupid mistake made to my bumper

[douface]

I was depressed by the news from family, and I wasn't paying enough attention when reversing, till the car kissed the pole...

How much am I looking at if got it fixed? there's a plastic thing inside the bumper got cracked as well.

At least my mum is getting better, eased my worries a bit...

Try taking it to a few panel beaters and get some quotes. We can't simply say it will be <insert figure> to fix as this depends on what the damage actually is on closer inspection and dependent on the panel beater.

That is a nasty scrape, broken clips too, might be cheaper for new bumper, best get a quote on both.

Thats terrible, yeah, its worth getting a few quotes

I have my bumper and alloy rims repaired by them, very happy with their price & services.

From past experience, the chrome bit above the fog light is not sprayable.

It's costing me $700 to get a new bumper, this includes all the usual jazz.

Plus another $700 to get the front bonnet resprayed and the body of the car touched up.

Doesn't insurance cover these sort of things?

You guys are really helpful, appreciate that~

I cannot afford a new bumper right now, not with a $1000+ flight back home.

I'll try the panel beaters, and mobile bumper repair service as well.

I'll keep you posted.

Not when my excess is $1,000.

If I was the cause of the damage to the front bumper (Hitting a dog, Mother had my car for that weekend while I took her's up to Brisbane for a service.) It would have costed me $1,500+

The other $700 charge is for a private quote just to respray the front hood along with touching up any marks around the car.
