The number plate surround was more expensive than you think - it's called a "garnish". I can't remember exactly though - somewhere between 100-200 quid?? Towing eye cover not much though

Get it checked over by a specialist though - and make sure she pays!! Her mistake completely!

Mine is just being written off after some stupid twat in a mondeo used the backend as a launch ramp - *HE* had no excuse as the lights were actually red !!

Apparently bent exhaust cannot be straightened - managed to get similar when my car was parked! The other driver was good enough to leave details so had bumber straightened and a new exhaust all on their insurance. Cost about a grand in total I think. It was easy and done within 2 weeks - as long as they admit 100% fault (and it looks like it is in this case), get a quote from Honda and get Honda to fax it to thier insurance company - Honda Slough were very good and sorted it all for me.

Both times by women.
