arghhhhh pissed off now!!

As tital says really, dropped a friend off and didnt see a concrete bollard which I reversed in to and now the bumper is stoved in along with a part of the boot lid and now the boot wont close... guess what im doing tomorrow now

Nightmare mate

oh sh*t soz to hear that hope you sort it out

it will have to wait till the morning im hoping i havent done too much damage but all i kno atm the boot wont shut

dont sound to good... did you hit it hard?

Bad luck Rich

Nightmare mate

Sorry to hear that rich

Terrible news! Hope it's not too hard to fix mate

oh dear, thats shit, hopefully you'll sort it.

Sorry to hear that rich if u get another boot lid bumper and iron I'm sure a local body shop won't charge much to straighten it for ya ( sorry to state the obvious) if its not too bad then get ur self a long bit of 2x4 and a hammer and knock it in till its all aligned the metal is quite soft! Good luck with the fix

I was literally crawling say 2mile an hour if that and its stoved the bumper in and abit on the boot lid and which now wont lock shut think i need to tie the boot catch to something solid and slowly pull forward to straighten it out alil bit im guessing that will be ok then all i need to do is sort the boot lid out and hopefully the bumper will just pop back out fingers crossed

Hi mate just remove the carpet and put a plank of wood and slowly tap the inner side of the boot where the catch is out then try and close the boot lid

well iv straightened it out alittle bit but using a tow rope and a tree so it shuts now but now i cant open it unless i go in through the back and use a straight head screw driver in the lock, does it sound like i havent pulled it out enough or is that too much?

Depends om the damage rich you have to look at how the tailgate looks like lineing up with rear clusters is there an even gap where the bumper sits against the body etc its hard to know if you got bent boot or bumper if you see what i mean mate as your just guessing whats right ...

Well the bar behind the bumper where it hit is bent but I'v managed to pull the rest of it out to looking pretty much straight other than the bumper and the bottom of the boot lid

Got a pic rich ???? Maybe better to get one thats straight so then you can see how much the boot is out of line if any so is the actual boot lid bent in mate ??

it is alittle bent below the number plate surround, looks like I will need a new bumper and bootlid at very least

I would get them first mate then bolt boot lid on and see what you got ...you dont want to be pulling the rear end out to far ...

yea I know, iv at least got it shut properly now though

At least it all easily replaced bolt on bits.
Hopefully you can get decent lid/bumper & if you got the rare black hopefully same colour & decent condition.

Hes is grey iirc mate ....

Pop down and see me rich as I am sure I have a grey tailgate, bumper and support bracket
