    I had a similar experience a few weeks back, some muppet punched in the same corner on my bumper and knocked it off its clips. Of course no details left so had to get it repaired at my own cost, around $500 for repair, repaint, and refit. Hubby thinks he has spotted the culprit in the local supermarket carpark (damage in right spot and height, same paint colour left on the bar, etc) but proving it would be another matter. I try and reverse into spots wherever possible, that way someone backing out of theirs is going to hit the bullbar instead and hopefully sustain some damage of their own in the process.
    I have had the same happen to me at work on a RAAF Base and the other car was no where to bee seen. Some people are just turds. Luckily this time I have the other parties details because the smash repairers quote to the insurance company is for just over $3600.

    Mate that would suck. Must have been 2 fairly big incidents.

      Was that quote just to fix the bar? Looking at your photo it appears the panel next to the end of the bar might be bent as well but I'm not sure.

          Fair enough then, would have been a bit much for just a fill and paint repair on the bar only.

            One of the most imporant mods to my car arrived today. The interal fishing rod holder.
            After some trial and error and a bit of playing around I got it in and set up.
            Just have to test drive it tomorrow to see how much movement the rods have.

              Well today the truck went in and had the bullbar, snorkel and UHF fitted. I have to say I am super happy with how it looks. It was dark when I got home tonight so I will get some photos tomorrow.
              The UHF has not power at the moment as it will be getting wired to the auxillary battery when the tray comes in.

                Here is a quick photo I took this afternoon. I am very happy with the Opposite Lock bar. I think it is a great fit and I like their new finish on the black ones. It is a rougher finish. Almost looks like the spray on ute bed protection stuff.

                  That does look good! LED indicators/markers and are they fog lights or driving lights?

                      Thamks MJ, they are just fog lights. I am still saving for some driving lights.

                        Looks Great, the OL stuff has also come a long way in the last few years.

                            I got my TG150 in the post today. I will try and get it fitted tonight or tomorrow. The quality looks great and the instructions comprehensive and easy to follow. Great work Paul.

                            Thanks again Paul.

                              TG150 is fitted. Very easy to fit and I'm very pleased with the product. Will give a bit more peace of mind when off road.

                                This afternoon I fitted up 3 heavy duty Rhino Rack bars and also fitter the ClicOn mount on the centre console to hold the UHF mic.









                                I'm slowly getting through the list of mods. Still to come is the 2nd battery, power to the rear, tinting, driving lights and my Foxwing that is on laybuy.
