How much is a complete new bumber and lip spoiler for a p1 as i've just had an argument with a traffic bollard and it won.Is it worth an insurance claim or not.
Thanks chris.

Chris,

The bumper is an aditional £500 ish I seem to remember. The prices are, in true IM fashion, unpainted. Contrary to what P1 Enthusiast says, the fitting instructions for a P1 lip show that it needs to be bonded for a proper fit, and how to do it. So you're looking at around £900-£1000 + Painting + fitting + VAT. Cost for these vary from dealer to dealer.

Claiming would depend on your NCD and excess I suppose.

Josh

i replaced mine about 6 months ago, im sure the front bumper/lip was about £440 plus vat, the original had some type of seal between the lip and the bumper, my bodyshop said i didnt need that and its been fine since, i hit a traffic cone on a track day
