We just returned from 3 weeks in France. A grumpy French lady was very annoyed with me for stopping at a narrow junction forcing her to run into my rear bumper. She blabbered and blabbered at me in French despite my telling her "Je ne parle pas Francais". In truth I can still do the "vous etes un cochon" stuff and "fermez la porte".
Her ramblings in French did not stop despite my continued "Je ne parle pas Francais" and I reached the point of "I'm having steak pudding chips and mushy peas for my tea, Je ne parle pas Francais, I'm having steak pudding chips and mushy peas for my tea" over and over again.
Top and bottom of it she put a big crack in my plastic moulded rear bumper. Looking at the damage you can't help but get the feeling that a competent person could remove the bumper, push it into the right shape and fiber glass it together and it would be good as new. The MH is ten years old and I'm not overly bothered if the repair isn't absolute perfection.
So, are there specialists who do that sort of work on our plastic bits? If it looks like I can have it sorted for £100 then I'll swallow that. If, instead it is a £500 job then I will put a claim in.
