Had a minor knock in car park the other day - the front bumper on my ph1 16v is now cracked on the corner of the passenger side and coming "unstuck" on the passenger side.

Dunno how much it will cost to fix but won't claim on insurance as they will probably write her off.

The rest of it is ok and the car is fine to drive ........just p'd off about it all really. Sad

To be honest its ofen just as easy to get a 2nd hand one, i know infinicar have a few in stock, but they aren't cheap, around the tune of £100, only about £130 new from renault

YOU CAN GET A WHOLE CAR FOR THAT MONEY MATE,
why buy new bumper and pay shit loads also spray if needed while you can just repair the mount and put it back on ????

of course it can!

Come on man, think about it. £100 for a bumper + 60ish to spray it.
Theres a P2 Valver on E-bay at the moment for £150.

Why not go down the repair shop and pay them £20 to fix it?

or buy some fiberglass and fix it yourself for a tenner.
