Well, fuck. You see what happens Larry? You see what happens when you install a 30cm high metal pole barrier less than a car’s length behind a parking bay?
Have emailed and called Volvo for a quote, and I fully expect to have to chase and chase them to find out if they’ll even do it for a model they’re not making any more. That being said, if they do, I’m anticipating somewhere in the £650-£900 price range for a new bumper. Any advance on that?
My preferred local garage “doesn’t do crash repairs”, although when pressed they said they will swap a new bumper in, although didn’t specify whether they’ll source it.
Can/should I just try and find somewhere that can courier me the part and do it myself? I don’t currently have access to my hanes manual, but is it likely to be a job I can do on my own without specialist tools and without fucking it up more?
