hello folks,
some idiot let their hire-van handbrake off today and gave my front bumper a shunt sideways.
it needs realigning, the dent needs removing and a respray.
could anyone post a pic or diagram showing how the bumper needs to be removed ?
pics of the brackets would be useful so i can see what will need to be straightened.
i've got a '98 tin top 2.5TD auto.
thanks in advance
phill

We wear skirts up here sometimes Max but we call them Kilts. Not that I have ever seen Kirsty in a skirt.

Sorry - what did the bugger bet you?
ADAMD could use your genius and wisdom over on his block decking thread - he wants to know how to stick his new pipe in the block without getting a leak, and also how to do his valve/tappet clearances. Bet you wished you'd never bothered DIYing your own head now
