So i take the wife shopping at Tesco park a bit away from the store as i always do, shopping done return to the car reverse back and  the front end of the bumper off, to say i`m pi**ed off is an understatement.

Now i need to source a replacement bumper anyone know of a good place?

Calmed down a bit so at the weekend I'm going to try and remove the bumper and see if i can get it back in the correct position may just be a case of doing that before forking out for a new bumper  

People are unbelievable! 

Let's hope it'll all go back on ok :) 

Awful, people just don't care at all! I once came back to the plastic trimming on the front around the fog lights off because someone backed into me in the car park.

no crack to the bumper just the parts on the bumper that connect to body work are mostly snapped off :( thinking now of claiming damage on my insurance to get it fixed but may impact on my insurance premium :(

scratch too the side panel and noticed after work the tyre is now flat too, my day just gets better 

Not cheapest i have seen but once you factor in it will be sprayed black as opposed to only being primed the price seems good

I know how you feel mate! There's always idiots!! 

You will probably need bumper bracket as well as it looks they been damaged. And check if headlight sprayers hose is intact and fog light wire harness 

And check your side panel. Bumer is screwed from the side panel( under the wheel arch ) , see pic , if the hole got ripped out then you need new one .

all been checked out m8 with garage its only the bumper thats damaged so will order up a new one from bumpers R us and garage will swap them out for only £25 which is a bargain  

New bumper ordered so will be fitted this year rather than next year cost me £350 for the standard A6 bumper could not stretch to £666.40 for the Sline bumper.

Plan is to just get the car fit for the road then maybe next year buy the sline bumper

Why not via inshurance ?

Did consider it m8 but my excess is £250 and my 15+ no claims is unprotected so my insurance will go up at renewal and its not cheap as it is  

I pay 600£ for mine all inclusive with ncd protection and rac cover 

finally, new bumper will be here tomorrow  meant to arrive last sunday but bad weather stopped delivery something about snow in the midlands or something lol

Total disaster :( so car was in the garage today for bumper fitting and sods law it dont fit, i am now contacting the company via email to get it returned and get my money back
