    From the photos so far it would appear the crash bar behind bumber took a big hit and with chassis leg bent I be concerned the car wont be right after cosmetic only repair.

    I would be very surprised to see any quality of repair for €500, there is €200-250 of materials alone in that repair. Even allowing for you getting parts there is still 10-12 hours work too. If someone is willing doing it for 500 quid they can't be doing it right.

    Parts wise i would be looking at Bumper, Bumper Bar, Bumper retainer. Then checking wing liner and fog light blank for damage.

    i have to source a new wing and bumper for it , then another 500 for the job so its costing the guts of 700 :) bumper crash bar will be re-done , chassis re jigged out , its not bent a whole lot you'd really have to see it to know what im talking about . and the lower air conditioning hose has been snapped in 2 . the company has been around years and guarantee a 3 year warranty on their work . the owner himself said himself for anyone else your talking 1500+ ,:) think they take before , during and after work of all cars for their website so il put a link up here when done :)
