Thanks but Edina got me a roll of white Gorilla tape sticks like sh!t to a blanket.
Dull one Annie, hope you source a reasonable fix.
As with a previous reply, I would go a rear type guard, have one myself (was already fitted) which do work, I'm thinking of a wee side line for the future, what are your rear dimensions?
I forgot to say, Annie. Can you make sure it is clean please, which will help when I am reading off, dimensions from tape.
Another update the guys at Canvey Island are going to fix my rear end on the 9th of October at an estimated cost of between £380 and £450 depending on any damage to the brackets under the bumper so I am pleased with that quote and will be taking the van back to them in just under 2 weeks time.
Sounds good annie . will they reshape yer back end :lol-049::lol-049::lol-049:

I've heard they do a good job.
I hit mine a while ago on my old van.
I repaired most of it myself
As above which cost about £20 for materials but I wasn't up to getting the paint match sprayed right do called in Mr Dent who for only £150 ! sprayed it up for me.
I hindsight I should have got the local body shop to match up a rattle can of paint and finished it myself.
How did you do it? Reversing or turning sharply when going forward and the back end kicking out?

Turning I was watching a waste bin in my mirror and didn’t see the wooden post next to it until I heard a crunch.

All part of the great adventure, kiddo.
Another of life's dragons, to be slain.

The finished job just need 24 hrs for the glues and sealants to go off but a cracking job.
