G'Day All.
My Love got rear ended the other day in the D2.
She's OK except for some Whiplash, Disco has a smashed rear bumber and lights and damaged rear step, as usual, you should see the other bloke.
:rulez: More to follow.

It is at the assessors (Insurance claim approved, not at fault), but I need to get it back on road ASAP (can't wait for the normal process) as I have a lot of SES commitments and it is our only car.
Does anyone have an assembly and time/ good heart (grovel) to get it to Kalangur (Bris north) so I can get it out of the holding yard and mobile again?
To be clear, all we need is a temporary loan until the repairer sources the replacement parts.
Cheers, Dave.

Dave,

I have one from mine. It is a little bit banged, from where I hit a pole, but is serviceable.

Only catches being:

> I am in Adelaide
> It is from the update model, so the lights are fog & reversing
> There are holes where I removed the reversing sensors


Now, if you are just looking for something to get you thru for a while, it will do the job, but the lights could be an issue.

Have a think anyway. Then we just have to figure on how to move it from A to B

G'day Bob, good idea, BUT, they have no rear bumpers in stock ATM :'(
New one is $660 and 2 days away when the repairer gets around to ordering it.
Thanks, Dave.
