Guys and girls, i have some bad news. Last night in the rain along a country lane, i had a little prang to the front of my car drivers side!!!! I'm trying to source some parts for example off ebay, for:

Front Bumper - including lower and upper grille
Driver Side Headlight
Bonnet
Coolant Radiator

Does anyone have any parts for sale on Ebay or just generally preferably in Performance Blue, to save me the cost of a spray job.

Driving along a road i didnt know outside of Pluckley, Kent was going about 40 at the time national speed limit road, and came up to a bend in a road (the bend being a complete 90 degree angle). The rear end slid out and scraped drivers side front bumper along a bricked wall, not good!!!! Plus it was raining and my rear tyres were due to be replaced very soon!!!

I'll try ford parts thanks. I'm open too all options right now.

Well the wings and bumper are just bolt on parts so you could get them sprayed up and fit them once painted.

Ford's your best bet for getting the parts

At least you're alright - thats the main thing, cars get replacement parts and don't hurt :

Sorry to hear about your crash, but at least you were ok which is the main thing.

I know this one was at driving speed, but you'd be surprised at the damage that can be done in a minor crash. When I had my own accident a few years back I hit someone from behind at a junction at no more than 5-10 mph and needed a new front bumper, one new headlight and foglight, new washer bottle, a new alloy from where I scuffed it against the kerb, and one of the front wings pulled out.

Agreed! You only have to sneeze on one of the panels and your looking for a body shop.
