    Help! Need a loan of D2 Rear Bumper assembly Please.

    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.
    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

    If their are no replies, MR Automotive [Redcliffe] have D2's out the back that they are wrecking, they are good people , tell them the story, you could get lucky. Bob
    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    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.
