    Unfortunately not. This time if was passenger rear . And they are a pain to refurb too I've heard.
    Does anyone know if I can get the edge refurbed? and if so (unlikely I bet), how much?

    I would say there have been kerbs in car parks since there have been both cars and places to park them...
    The worst I can remember were my local Tesco in the 1970s
    Used to sit in the car and laugh at at least three people each day impacting the kerbs, and quite often one ending up in a blown tyre

    I've done the same... cut across one late at night and bottomed out my chrysler neon.... same carpark a different area... turned and went directly square up and over a kerb in my Ford Cougar with new alloys I bought that day!!!! Buckled and trashed one, and it was 3 small kerbstones on a random lip/corner in the otherwise flat carpark....

    Oh and in the snow I took ym back end of the Signum over one of those pointless 20cm wide double kerb stone protrusions that stop you from turning that little bit earlier... Great idea when the snow is sitting on top...

    Carpark kerbstones should all be banned!!!!! grrrr :P
