Regular readers might remember I dinged my back bumper just after Christmas.

For all sorts of reasons, I've only just got round to organising the repair, and it's being done as I write this. Pics to follow.

It's finished, despite the weather. The repair guy arrived bang on 9am and cracked on immediately. Showers were due to arrive about midday, but of course, this is England, so they arrived about 10.15. At this point, the fill had been made, and sanded, and was ready to paint. So we drove three miles to his brother's garage, where there's a covered area.

Prepped for painting

Being painted - you can just make him out with his gun

Well the respray looks good, but I'm not so sure about that lump of ugly black plastic on the left :)
