    77TSI Owners - Rear bumper pic needed

    Hi All,

    Long story short, got rear ended, Capital Smart Repairs - St Marys repaired the rear, bumper looks dodgy, droopy and bowed, they have had 2 attempts to fix it, now GIO are sending me to external assessor.

    Is someone able to send me a picture of the same angle as my photo below (possibly a little bit more zoomed out & lower?), so that the assessor can compare what it looked like pre-accident?

    Cheers,
    Luke

    Attachment 10701 Hope this will do


    As you see the bottom shot is a bit of a lower angle than your shot but you still cant see the little lower lip

    The top shot is level with the lower edge and you still can barely see it.

    Sorry got them uploaded in wrong order

    I reckon if you put your hand up the back it might have been bogged and stretched or if it was dented it stretched then and they have just pulled it out and painted it. Might have heated it a bit to get it out and that may also stretch it.

    Ask for a new bumper.
