• Aha, basically like all modern cars then! So not diamond cut but buying and fitting a new wheel is easy.

    Bumper is more complicated - they seem to go for about £100 on eBay in good condition. Not really sure it's worth the bother as the marks aren't that bad - pic of other side attached.

    But should I ask for this plus the cost of fitting (I don't know how much that would cost)?

    Basically I feel bad asking people for money but she did ding my car and it would cost a lot more if I insisted on taking it to a body shop.

    Maybe my question should be if you did that damage what do you think would be reasonable?!

  • I would leave car as is. Tell her what it would cost and ask her to make the donation to your chosen charity.

    Then keep the car forever. Or longer

  • Yeah I can’t say I’d bother fixing it personally - considering how expensive good cosmetic repair can be. If you get some cash off her I’d just put it aside for the next service or whatever.

  • Yes, this.

    Karma is better than clean bodywork.
