Easy done... My little bro's mate did the same sort of thing in the work 4x4 a few weeks ago.

Was thinking the same.


...but at the end of the day like the others have said you are OK and the car is only a hunk of metal that can be replaced.

cheers for the sympathies guys, unfortunately every panel of the car has dents and scrapes so not really salvageable but I kept the grill as a memory since it was only a wee scratch on it. I'd take my steering wheel but they would notice that lol... Like you all say, I'm here and will be ZS'ing it again before Christmas if all goes well!
Thanks again though!

If the plenum and vis vales were to "fall off" you could make some decent money for them on eBay mate. As well as any bit of the bodykit

i have my standard one still too but its whether the garage would let me!
incidentally there was another mk2 ignition blue hatch sitting there with front end damage, freaky!

Body kits a no no I think but power vis should be easy!
