On my way to work this morning, car in front pulled off on to the road island and I followed. Cupid stunt then proceeded to stall his car didn't he and I was left with not quite enough room to stop..

Yeah yeah, I know its all my fault, but he said 'Sorry, it was all my fault.' (even if the insurance campany will not see it that way). Luckily there were no details exchanged etc, and I'm left with about 3 inch sqaure scratch marks on the bottom of the bumber - looks like the bottom went underneath his bumber - thankfully that is the only damage.

Now, does a 1 or 3 piece STi v4 front lip cover this part of the bumper or is it still exposed?

Where can I get paint from cheaply if I decide to try to sort it myself?

Is anyone around the Notts / Derbys area any good at this spraying lark who is willing to spare an hour two to do it - obviously there will be beer vouchers involved?

Does anyone know a sprayer that has deep green mica paint (64C) lying around or about to get some work done at the bodyshop where they could just quickly paint whats needed without huge expense?

I'm gutted that I've done it, but hey, its only a bit of paint work at the end of the day and it'll be sorted shortly one way or another.
