Rear bumper needed
« on: 05 March 2010, 15:08:20 »

My Dad has a 2003 estate CDX 2.2 (greyey blue colour) with a dent in the lower bumper - pretty sure not repairable, like an inverted football size in the corner....

How easy is it to get a cheap bumper in the right colour? Or is it simple to get one cheap from Vauxhall? ££? In Kent btw...

Thanks in advance.

get a heat gun from b and q,  gently warm it up and then try push it back out putting your hand behind it.   works for me on bumpers and pannels too most of the time.

'tis an idea, thanks! Will suggest to him. Will a hairdryer do the job or are they too weedy?
