Default pranged my baby.......

black 01-04 focus edge.......

ok i have had a minor coming together between my front bumper and a piece of brickwork in the driveway in my new house

had one of those accidents which was totally unavoidable as i simply didnt know it was even there and couldnt see it from my driving line

anyway i doubt i can repair it as it has been distorted and scraped pretty bad

what is my best plan of action?

scour scrap yards for one?

ebay?

anybody got one spare?

i would rather get one pre-painted in panther black as i am useles at spraying and am trying to keep costs down at present

also i kerbed the alloy i the process how much are minor alloy kerbags liable to cost and do i have any alterntives to professional work?

as u can see the budget is very tight after my recent ozzi holiday.......

Where abouts in the country are you mate - i'm driving from Milton Keynes to West Yorkshire a few times over the next 48 hours and have got a Mk 1.5 Panther Black bumper for Ł50 (which is what i paid for it when i was going to put it on my focus before i sold it )
