We have a local paint technician who does bumper repairs, uses a heat gun and fibreglass filler. he charges about £70 per repair. I have him repair my car, wifes car and eldest sons car and he is coming in June to repair my youngest sons car, all damage was before we bought the cars (except one  ::)) He is coming to do the youngest rear bumper in June. It currently looks about as bad as that one, when he has finished it will look mint.

Not saying to buy that one as I am sure there are plenty of silver Omega bumpers out there  :y
