fed up with other half

[guest5251]

i had a phone call off kath today to be told she has dented the tailgate,put a hole about 37mm in diameter in the bumper and put a crease in the bumper under the rear light cluster,she told me the car rolled back a little on my mums drive and she hit an 8 foot high dividing brick wall between 2 garages(she has parking sensors fitted also) but on investigation she has crumpled the crush can behind the bumper so its been a fair old bump ,the hole has been created by the hollow section of the crush can.
for christmas i am getting her an eye test as i am now concerned how big a wall has to be before she will see it.

  Oh dear

Hope you get it all sorted and with the missus.

Not quite as extreme as yours but I was gutted when my missus kerbed my alloys

i am taking the car off her at the weekend (that hasn't gone down well) as i am going to remove the bumper sand ,fill and repaint with a rattle can and see how it goes ,as long as it looks respectable i will be happy and if not a bodyshop it will be.

If the collapsible post has punctured the bumper, it'll probably be a bit shorter too. Compare the length with the other side. They only bolt on. The other thing that might be mangled are the various slots, tabs and clips which the bumper locates into.

Have you thought of trading her in for a newer model ?
That still leaves you with a bumper to fix though .

all the mountings are good ,i know this as i took the bumper off on tuesday and with a hair dryer i heated the bumper up and re shaped the area where the bumper had been puctured to get it looking more respectable.

if you ever have to remove the rear bumper inside the rear wheel arches on the bottom edge there is a spring loaded clip press it down and it unclips the 1st mounting clip making it easy to undo the rest of the clips.
