Cost to fix this damage?

[SomerandomGuy]

When driving on a single lane road in the countryside I pulled in to let another car pass and managed to hit a jagged rock wall. I didn't hit it very fast at all but from what I can see the damage includes:

Actual crack in bodywork.

Front panel lose and scuffed. 

Fog light broken.

Headlight misaligned.

And somehow I knocked all the internal clips keeping the front panel on inside. 

 

Any idea how much this is going to cost me?

Minimum £2k.

Agree with Madasafish. Probably more cost effective to get it done on insurance and take the premium hit.

My god :O 2k!? I could buy another Toyota Yaris for half that.

Repaired similar on my partners Yaris Hybrid

I took the bumper off, turned it over on a workmate and clamped the split back together with a couple of clamps and a bit of wood. I then melted the back of the plastic together with an old soldering iron in a stiring motion but take care not to poke a hole right through the plastic. Next step was to clean the area and apply resin and fibreglass mat across the break. 

Refit the bumper and if the crack can still be seen contact a smart repair company who will fill, sand and respray the are for about £120

It's going to cost £185 not 2k

Ha ha, just reread the thread again. Yeah, not £2000, £200+ 

[SomerandomGuy]

£185 really doesn't seem too bad now thanks to that guy saying £2000!

Is this what you want?

From the auction site.....

Easiest way if to get a new one and get some garages to spray it, install it.
