Unbelievably I now need a S/H replacement boot, preferably in red?
Rear bumper also, if I can't repair this one.
Poor car, seems to be a twat magnet.

I've got a rear bumper, but it will need spraying as it's silver.

Thanks, I think my bumper will fix-up, a scrtach or two. Got a boot on it's way, bit tatty, but good enough until something else turns up.

Still can't work out what happend to it....

Ouch! Looks like a skateboarding twat found it challenging.

thats effin awful. :explode: really sorry for you dirk.
bmx could be an explanation, its definitely the right sort of height... but id expect there to be more marks from the pedals and tyre tread etc as well as the peg. (speaking as someone who spent way too much time riding round on one!)

No offence meant to any former BMX riders!

I think it's maybe a tow bar or large van or something, it's hit with some force and it was parked the other way round when it happened, so the damaged side was traffic side. But no sign of any bits of car on ground. Just a mystery.

Replacement boot has arrived thanks to that nice chap form Wales.
