Default Rear Bumper help!

Hey all,

I've just had a bit of a typical P-plater accident and reversed into some low concrete that I didn't even see (stupidly enough) and I have buggered the right hand side of the rear bumper on my AUII. Now I'm aware that the bumper skirt thing is all just one piece of moulded plastic, I have to replace the entire thing.

Does anyone know anywhere in the ACT other than Ford themselves that I can go to, to get a new one to replace it?

You might want to add a towbar whilst you've got the rear bar off too.

Have the towbar already, and some how that made it out undamaged! It's just the bumper and a few dents in the spare tyre well that I have to bash out :

That's true - he lived to tell the tale, so not typical at all.

Try Ford Spares at maryborough st fyshwick. I have a galaxy blue AU1 rear bar in my shed if you want it - not in the best nick, but it's straight. Just send me a PM. I can even fit it for you for nix (takes about 30 mins or so, so allow 1.5 hrs - my estimates are notoriously low!)
