I have replaced the inlet / exhaust manifold , done a few other jobs on the five and felt quite chuffed with myself.

Backing out of the garage , I caught the wall. Only the slightest of knicks and have cracked he rear phase 1 arch thingy

Ballls and feck.

I have never sworn so much in all my life.

Its knicked a 50p piece of of the plastic , and fractured it a bit.

Bongo + rattle can FTW?

Are your Ph1 arches painted?

If so, fibreglass on the back, smooth over some filler on the top, bish bash bosh a lick of paint and your sorted.

Yep - there painted.

I was going to do something along those lines , but my car is a non standard colour and its snowing outside.
