Or landed on by a rather large person anyway. Gutted.

Had the car parked in town last night, come back to it after a night out and there is a huge dent in the bonnet. Annoying after spending the day cleaning it I might add.

Looked at it in the daylight today and took it to my bodyshop - they bashed the dents back from the inside which helped a bit but it's far from perfect.. and they want a fair amount to sort it as the supporting beams on the underside are all bent out of place.

So.... I take it it's worth getting a new one? Anyone happen to have a titan silver one going spare!??

/rant over!

Not sure of the going rate for a bonnet but £100 seems good to me, a fair bit cheaper that a carbon jobbie (unless you want an excuse to go carbon;):D )

Maybe you should consider getting a second car for when you're out in town of a weekend.

SOmething which you wouldnt care if it got dented etc

Really sorry to hear matey. But I would deffo get an M3 bonnet. Just find one second hand and get it painted up. It will only be a little more time consuming getting it fitted, but will look awesome.
