Baz ducks out of sympathy and goes straight for the sale lol

Whats the situation guys, are you looking into having it straightened? Bumper and bonnet etc will not be hard to get hold of, I guess the question is whether the chassis or suspension turret is bent?

It wasn't high speed only between 15-20 mph, damage is cosmetic. Had it on a ramp straight away & chassis rail n suspension turrets are fine no damage to chassis & sub frame. drives straight too as drove it home from hemel. Got a mate comin round later to possibly give me cheaper quote for sorting so will need the parts listed! Cheers
