It's looking better than that now lol

Found someone to repair it in the end, i'm picking it up tomorrow.
Original quote was £400 but it's costing £500 now. Cheap when you consider that includes fitting a new subframe, bumper, wings, wishbones, straightened out the box section on a jig. All bushes replaced, trackrod ends, CV boots and did the rust on the rear arches aswell taken the dents out of the bonnet. This includes all spraying and a full MOT.

All i need is the front grill and a pair of fog lights and it's complete.
I'll post a few pics of the work when it's complete.

Can't wait Very Happy

BTW the black wheel is down to a nice thick coating of road grime

I know it will be different but the bend in the box section was only minor so there hasn't been any major reconstruction.
But i suppose it's down to how well the subframe has been fitted and aligned. Guess i will have to wait and see.
