what rear quarter do you need

gordo996 · 21 Apr 2007, 12:55 PM

GOOD NEWS quarter panel is ok well need to be reshaped bodyshop has taged the bumper back on for now and poped out the dent in thr bumper and pulled the quarter panel back out it hasent creased

I was a bit worried last night oh a good news on the price to new bumper from subaru £107.35 + vat not bad i think for the whole job £350 to get the quarter panel reshaped + painted ,spoiler painted and bumper painted

thought last night i was going to be down a grand or have to claim on the insurance thought it was bye bye no claims

here is some pics before cash and after although i did not get photos when the bumper was hanging of and the quarter panel was pushed in
