Bum someone hit my car



  PH1_172
Soneone hit my lil clio iutside my mums house:dead::quiet:, it was parked up and they swung in to park in front and caught the front o/s of my car, it now needs a new front bumper, o/s wing and headlight.

Good news is there insurance company just rung me to say they have admited liability and are booking it in to be repaired,

Every cloud and all that:star:

Well, at least they didn't drive off like most people do.

Just check the colour match after the repair, before taking it away.

thank you, will they spray the whole bumper or just the damaged area its most of the drivers side is all scraped and paint taken off it, plus the wing is all scraped and chipped, my dad said they might have to blow the bonnet over and other wing to get the colopur match proper

they will more thank likely blend the colour on the door and re-laquer the whole door to try and disguise the blend,

if it's sliver be very careful to look at it in strong sunlight as silver is a difficult colour to match, most people make the mistake of looking at the panel join between the wing and the door for colour match when they should look at the rear part of the door for evidence of mismatch.

not sure if the bonnet would get sprayed or not i doubt it would but it depends on the bodyshop and if they think the insurance company will pay for it if they put it on the quote.
