Front's been on since 2003 and this is first major damage 
Major floods last night in and around Staffordshire/Derbyshire/Cheshire; I had to drive through several deep, fast running floods between work and home last night and that was the end result - did me a favour cause I'm getting back on with the new parts.
One thing I would mention is that me, in my shitty 1.2 8v 14 year old car with a "crap" fibreglass kit made it home - I saw several prestige cars and 4x4s stranded, steaming like mad and smashed to pieces yet I sustained a bit of damage to a bit of fibreglass which in all fairness I can repair myself in the workshop for nothing

I know, I've had a new front bumper just as long - they've sat on my sister's bed since I bought them whilst she's lived in Greece!
Thats why I'm not too fussed about the damage because I've got my arse in gear again
