Question

Rough idea of cost?

I was involved in a bit of a Scoob-Porsche interface this morning. Scoob has scuffed and very slightly pushed in bumper. Porsche is destroyed.

My dealership have quoted £200.60 for the bumper, £62.22 for the beam, if it's needed and about £25 for clips. Of course, that doesn't include painting or labour etc.

Haven't actually bought one myself but coming from the motortrade I'd say that sounds pretty reasonable....except for the clips Chances are they'll just re-use the existing ones, maybe replace the odd one or two...25quid would by sh#t loads!

Im sure Midland Impreza have them for about 60 quid for the bumper

Cheaper than the dealer

I agree with Sonic go for a second hand one,or after market jobbie.

That is if your having to pay yourself,if the Porche driver is paying get a gold plated one!
