Yes there all broken.

It wont be written off as they have just replaced the quarter panel and door which would of come to loads more than this.

Its just that the price is more than I thought it would be. The guy hasnt really got a choice but to pay it though has he, as I dont want to go through insurance and neither does he.

Yes but I dont want a second hand bumper.

I dont really care how much it is anyway really aslong as matey pays up.

Those prices are probably list prices from Vauxhall for new parts.

just make sure you dont pay for it and then try and get the money from him. Get him to either pay upfront to you (and then you sort it out for cheaper!!) or get him to pay them upfront.
