Hi all,
cut short, hit a new-type Fiesta up the backside this morning, not a scratch to his car, mine has broken headlight mounds, busted bulb, bent crash panel and bent corner on the bonnet...

Any ideas on cost for a garage to straighten out the bend in the bonnet?

Cheers

not creased no, just where the bonnet goes over the left headlight and across the V grill, the bumper of the fiesta pushed the edge of the bonnet down, breaking the v grill mounts and light mounts.

Its a small bend, but I notice it so will have to be done

Just had a read on their website :-

''Providing the paint is NOT broken and we are able to gain access behind the dent, Dent Devils will repair Cosmetic Dents WITHOUT paint or fillers and help to Maintain your cars Original Factory Finish''

Along the edge of the bend the paint has all cracked

Oh well, good excuse for a bad boy bonnet in the summer

I creased my Bonnet and side wing and smashed my headlight and cracked all my bumper

For £300 I got new headlight, Plastic welded my bumper and resprayed, Crease out the bonet and resprayed and the crease out of the wing and resprayed. Didn't think that was too bad of a price

A new bonnet is £50-60 so may as well get a new un sprayed up for the cost of the repair of the old one.
