My and a carpark pillar fell out today and it was 0 pillar 1

is the car park goona put it through their insurance

nope it was a big concrete thing and has nothing but a scratch .... i have a mate who has another mate with a little body shop £450 for the labour and about £500 for parts.......as my excess is £700 just going to do it cash as it will knock 2 years off my no claims

Bloody hell. Is there any damage to the chassis or exhaust or is it just the body work?

I can not open the boot but looking from inside the slam panel looks bent but I think it should pull out once the bodyshop gets the boot open. I was only reversing at a regualar parking speed no heavy acceleration so just shows how soft and crumply new cars are to absorb the energy....keeps us safe inside but costs more to fix..........just mad with myself for doing it!

You must have been well upset

My car went on its own little adventure and ended up kissing the back of another car (she's a floozie!!) but luckily the damage wasn't too bad. I never got it fixed because it was too expensive and it doesn't show enough.
By the looks of it, its just bumper and panel damage and shouldn't have touched the chassis.

got a mate who has another mate with a little bodyshop so about £450 labour and £500 parts ...... looks like a new boot lid, bumper and bits plus the slam panel needs pulling out

oooooh that looks nasty mate, how fast were you going?

about 4 -5mph

i did as much damage to my laguna when a VW sharan people carrier stopped quicker than i did, i was doin about 20 though lol

Bloody hell! Sorry to hear about your little mishap. Hopefully it will be looking all shiny and new ASAP.

damn that's not good sorry to see that.. my mate used to have a zetec s and lost out at a similar speed to a wall lol, it is gutting

haha i did this but luckily i only cracked the back bumper, coz it was a pollard and its not even that noticeable! you poor sod!

Ooh dear! Hope you get manage to get it sorted soon. Know how you feel but try not beat yourself up too much about it.

had a look under the back and found the cross member behind the bumper is creased so it maybe a bit more costly......may have to go the insurance way after all grrrrr stupid me!
