EH well when i ran into someone and did no damage to their jeep, hit their towbar, i did 4k worth of damage to my own, the airbag ecu had to be replaced though, but my point is you dont know until it's quoted properly

Before anyone suggests me, I don't do panel realignment because there may be damage underneath causing it. I just do paint

Completely

OP, if you're in Cork, try phoning around a few bodyshops for quotations. Be very specific in describing the damage. The ones I used before and I'd be happy to recommend would be Don Atkinson in Innishannon, Pat Hegarty - Marina Crash Repairs, or Body Image in Ballincollig. I'd imagine for a repair and paint of the bumper including realignment you'd be talking somewhere around 400 Euro.
