Update on "my m8 drove into my car"

**Jackvectra18** · 24th February 2009, 23:02

Some of you may remember the thread where i told you my m8 drove into my car well after taking Lumps advice, i had the car checked by work and there is no damage to anything apart from a scuff on the bumper and a very small dent in the wing, I told my m8 about the VXR bumper on e-bay and well, he bought it for me the day after! for £400 quid not many friends i know would do that! its a very slightly different shade of red tho which im upset about and it shows up worse in pictures

but hey here are the photos

(sorry she is so dirty in the VXR pic)

Here she is before the VXR bumper

Once VXR has been fitted

(p.s thanks to all the guys who gave me advice on uploading the pics)

The old bumper only had a scuff on it and could have been re-sprayed, but he bought me a VXR one, im not complaining lol!!

Can't see much of a difference in colour myself!
Maybe something a good polish will fix?!

A good friend.

The colour difference is probably more noticeable in the 2nd picture because of the lighting.

Wow! Fantastic! What a perfect situation... upgrade to a VXR bumper in the correct colour!

Looks spot on to me fella... shade and everything! VXR rims next??
