Guest Kazimodo Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Sorry to hear about the 'bump' at least the Landy's OK, note the rigid steel rear crossmember makes a very poor crumple zone. Kaz xxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboBrett Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 yeah glad i missed the towbar;), would have been happier with the curb and the bush tho:) also it was a range rover i got them mixed at least i know why all the mums use them for the school runs round hear...they dont bend easy:cool: just been looking through the faq on how to remove the front bumper clicky because i cant unscrew the plastic screws that dont unscrew:blink: but anyway anyone have the partnumber to hand as to what needs to be bought? Bits I recommend buying before you do this: Plastic fasteners for the top centre fixings (step 3 - under bonnet seal strip) New plastic fasteners for the top inside of the mouth (step 4). A new stud strip assembly and nuts (step 6). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kazimodo Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 hi sorry to see the damage to the soop,is it you everyday car or do you have other transport. you were probably luckier it was a range rover then rather than the armoured tank like thingy that we have. good luck with the mending,i am sure there will be lots of support on the site all the best kazx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra steveo Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 thats do-able, glad your not hurt, i am sure if you give jezzy a call you will be able to get the bits for it, and i think that the bar across the front comes off ? *wait to be corrected* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra dan Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 looks similar to my accident, not too bad at all. i needed a bumper, bonnet, wing, and the bar the bumper attaches to. oh, and an FMIC if you have one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
