Hi

New to me VF, has bent panel, see before pix, after pix of my handy work, NOT. (dont have the tight tools and skill)

Whats the best option, get it repaired ($$$) not sure if touch up guys can fix this?

Bog It... or get a new 2nd hand panel in the right colour and or a panel and spray it.

Are the aftermarket panels any good, as in do they fit correctly.

could probably get a used guard in the same colour that wouldn't break the bank. Front bar imo is the bigger issue.

I am on to the front bar, going to try glueing it back together , heat to reshape and respray, it was driven by an old bloke and had scratches over the front bar, so it may come off for fixing other scraps etc..

I guess these front panel simply unbolt to remove

Ha JC.

Did this bumper repair, The clear looked good last night after drying for a few hours, this morning it looks like this..

We had a eavy dew, so wondering ifd this is moisture getting on the clear or something else. Sprayed with duplicolor to matcg paint color then sepetone acyrilic clear over the top.
