    Well, sorry to hear, but as Wally would say: if you had "your eyes wide open", then you might have "saved me"
    from "digging your own hole" but now I know that "your hearts a mess" about it all...

    Still, "somebody that I used to know" may have parts to fix it....

    sorry dude...couldnt resist...have fun at the concert!!

    Haha. Thanks mate. We're a bit early so I'm sitting under a tree near the gate at the moment.

    after seeing that pic, I reckon it could be repaired and reshaped by a good panel shop. They can heat it up and pop it back to shape well now days...


    good luck.

    have a great night! I hear his gigs are awesome!!

    Would still need a respray because of that crack though, so who knows how the labour would compare to getting the part :|

    I'll follow Tiggers lead.

    Might be beyond repair, I dont think there is an "easy way out".

    Car manufactures are "making mirrors" for a reason.

    "Don't worry, we'll be watching you", don't want our cars damaged.

    Sorry, couldn't help myself either.

    Enjoy the concert.

    Well thank you everyone. Yeah I assumed the whole bumper would need replacing and I said to my sister how lucky it was that she didn't hit the door or something – that would be expensive!
    Tigger and Wolfgang, you guys crack me up. By the way the concert was possibly the most amazing thing I've ever been to.
    Anyway we're back on the freeway on the way home, geez the Polo loves long journeys! Helps clean up the DPF as well.
    Thank you again for all of your responses!
