Hi all,
I'm hoping someone can give some advice and rough costs etc for this repair and what they'd recommend to do (i.e. repair, replace, insurance etc?)
Long story short, some kind fellow hit me in a retail car park while I was shopping and disappeared without leaving any contact details I was in there all of about 20mins while on my way to my new place. Didn't notice the damage until I got there!!
This happened at the beginning of May, so I've had a few weeks of going through the retail park CCTV company and police to find out that my car wasn't covered by CCTV at the time of the incident So i'm now focusing on fixing the damage.
The damage is localised to the front passenger side wheel arch, front bumper and alloy (just had all 4 refurbed ). The wheel arch has a nasty crumple, the front bumper has some scuffs and the alloy has a minor scuff. I'm mainly focusing on the wheel arch and front bumper damage as i'll take my wheel back to the guys who've just done them a few weeks ago (Dimond Alloys, highly recommend ).
I'll attach some photos as a ref...
If anyone has been in similar situations that can help with rough costs etc, I would be greatly appreciated it. And of course any other advise.
Thanks,
James
p.s. my neighbour knocked my wing mirror in Jan, just getting fixed as he took his sweet time. 2018 is not a good year for my car!
