Thanks Steve, It's looking a bit sorry for itself at the mo with the back bumper removed. Im going to try and straiten it but tbh I think I'll be looking for a new one and the plastic corner bit is definitely scrap, dont know if it was the cold weather but it split right in two.

Shouldn't the elderly neighbour be footing the bill for replacement parts then?

Dead right mate, but as the damage wasn’t to great we’ve decided to sort it between ourselves which is why I’m sourcing the parts. I think it’ll be quicker than getting the insurance company’s involved in the long run.
