its a copy made from a real one.but made out of fiberglass and kevlar.
many of the copys are shite..but this one is perfect and totally similar to the original one.the guy who made it ,a norwegian proper ford nut.he has two rs200"s,and a rs500 rally car.he made 2 wrc bumpers from the casting of and original wrc bumper he had laying around.heh.and one of the two is mine.
yeah...and i know its written "bumper"..but i was just stressed when i wrote the thread

looks like the easiest part of the bumper to repair though on a straight centre section and like K5SSY said the plate would hide any imperfections in the repair....could have been worse, it could have been either side corner! Good luck getting even

Shouldnt be a problem to fix that bumper, annoying though... Hope you find out who's responsible.

Thick fuck, why don't people look!

Easily repairable though, i've done far far more damage to fibgreglass bumpers in the past and it came out looking fine!

the driver of the car that hit mine..has to been drunk..and ive got many clues leading me to think so..so i think this will turn out to be not just an innsurance case,but also a police matter...so...we will just have to wait and see.will get back to the people who say that they know what happend...on wednsday..and will contact the police again tomorrow..to give them a brief on whats going on.

and dan..thanx for the uplifting words..i think it will be repairable too.people who know to fix fiberglass will do this pretty easily i think.so.hehe yeah
