Heh as only lived there for a day. He said normally he would pay but he can't afford to what with moving. What a welcome eh? Haha
He's been really good about it tbh. I was expecting the "it's a old car anyway. It's only a few dents".
Insurance phoned me again to ask for a updated value on the car and what condition it's in. I said it was worth about 2k (other than the roof, it's bloody tidy!) and they agreed to that so at least I know if the bill is less than 2k, I'm ok! Lol
Just been and had a look and whipped the bumper off. It needs a new wing, new hockey stick and clip and the bumper repairing. Lucky the crack in the bumper has mostly followed the line of the rubbing strip so worst case is, it can be plastic welded. It's broken some of the plastic welds on the inside of the bumper but they will be easy to fix. Garage might just decide to fit a new bumper!
Oh and while the bumper was off I might of made a little mod

To add to my day, just found a door dent that i didn't have yesterday......need a protective bubble for my car I think!
