Rear Bumper

Calling on the collective wisdom for some help.

Rather stupidly this morning I reversed my car into a wall in a car park. One of those sneaky abutments that caught me out plus I had turned off my parking sensors as I was on a conference call with work so didn't want everyone to suffer the beeping. Feel free to laugh but it was a classic case of trying to do too much and coming unstuck.

The result isn't that bad (will post a picture later) but the rear nearside corner of the bumper, where the edge of the wall hit, has a slight crease in it. Not too bad but its put a bump on the top of the bumper and has creased around that. My questions are:

Can it be repaired (it would need to be reshaped but possibly not resprayed? You will have a better idea when I stick a pic up later.

If it can't be repaired, where am I best placed to get a new bumper from? I have looked online and they seem to be as rare as the proverbial rocking horse doo doo. New or second hand I am not bothered.

Thanks in advance for any help and advice. Smile WINNER - 2009 Best Newcomer Award

Yes some guy in Lancing put a HST kit on his new white RRS and I picked the bumpers up at a good price. I have them just in case I damage the bumpers. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

I have a rear bumper off my old bonetti grey range,

it will need painting as its a) the wrong colour and b) picked up scratches from being stored.

but has no damage, I removed to fit a HST kit

I am in stourbridge west mids and you can have it for the princely sum of £20
