Cracks or scratches, those people can get it done. Cheapest is ask them to apply putty and respray it back, no point changing a new bumper.

Your bro need to kena screw properly.

Cannot ma, do wrong already must get scolding. Borrowing his car in future is another story, cannot mix them together. tongue.gif

Thanks for all the feedback guys.

Sent the car in on Thursday morning itself to a place my family uses. Total estimate came in on Friday - RM1150 to get it back to perfect. I thought it was reasonable.

The guy my brother hit cost RM950, so this stupid accident has set me back RM2100.

Not claiming insurance because I have 3 yrs NCB.

Car still drove in a straight line after the accident, thank God! So I think mechanically it is fine.

yeah but for a fussy guy like me, i'd be extra sensitive about the car and may find some minor problems that may have gone unnoticed before... rclxub.gif

great that you managed to get this done quickly......but as a precaution.....make sure the guy gives you all the ori stuff......especially headlight.....else you will notice the difference with your left headlight very soon......also.....make sure they also use back the ori bulb from your spoilt headlamp if its not broken......the new headlamp from proton does not come with bulb.....some mechanic will take your spoilt headlamp bulb and keep and put lousy bulb into your new headlamp.....
