Some {insert large list of expletives here s:evil: :evil: s:evil: s:evil: :evil: s:evil: s:evil: :evil: s:evil: s:evil: :evil: s:evil: s:cry: :cry: s:cry: s:cry: :cry: s:cry: s:cry: :cry: s:cry: } hit my car yesterday whilst it was parked outside my house and no one has left a note. I've attached pictures. I'd like to know what people think I'm going to need for it to be fixed before I go to Mr T and get it fixed. They probably looked at it and thought no damage done but I think it's going to need a new headlight (the mount has nearly sheared and the inside plastic has cracked severely). But mostly I'm concened about the impact on the bumper, the push on it has caused something to almost come through the bumper, which can be seen on the second pic. Oh, and I know it needs a clean.
[edit: last picture was wrong, it's changed now, to show the cracking of the plastic in the headlight]
any advice welcome.

That is VERY similar to what has happened to me. Someone has hit it, not left a note and the bumper is now slightly out of line. Luckily, I don't think the damage is quite a severe as yours underneath, but the photos could actually been have taken of my car! Identica (and the colour! s:wink: :wink: s:wink: s:lol: :lol: s:lol: )
Admittedly, you do have to stare to see the misalignment, but it is bloody annoying all the same to think that I can see it. I know my car.........
Can't give any advice on this, sorry. But I thought I would share my experience with you cos it is an uncanniliy familiar story......... s:evil: :evil: s:evil: s:evil: :evil: s:evil: s:evil: :evil: s:evil:
s:shock: :shock: s:shock: ooh SH*T! s:shock: :shock: s:shock:
sorry to here about that mate, there really are some monkies on the road
The thing pushing through the bumper will be the corner of the box section just behind it (the real bumper).... you can see what I mean from this pic of my car sans plastic front bumper:

the right corner seems to be just where your dent is.
So thats where the horn is located s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
