2002 Yellow ZS (Rear Bumper Needed)

Had a bit of trouble in the car wash and had my rear bumper ripped off! Anyone have one for sale in yellow or knows of somewhere cheap where I might be able top get one ready sprayed. Im in the Luton area

Thanks guys

Ben

firstly.

Have you tried any of the ebay breakers? They tend to have plenty on offer. How did a carwash rip that off? Was it muppet error or can you claim for the damage?

If I do find something, anything I should know? Normal rear bumper with heatshield cut-out i presume?

no luck on ebay, looked before I came on here.
The bumper seemed slightly out of place (rear drivers side) when I went in the wash but thought nothing of it until I heard it being ripped off. Damn. Could claim on insurance but thought id look and see if I could do it myself. Just didnt fancy a spray job which is why i need it in yellow. Thanks for replying

I wouldn't be in a car wash in the first place... especially with the saloon spoiler.

thats why my zs will never go through a car wash. the only car wash mine will ever get is when it rains.

i have got my own jet wash thing and long hose to do mine then i got moved to germany. its illegal apparently to wash your car in the street and punishable by up to 10,000 euro fine!!!!

as you can imagine mine is filthy at the minute especially as the cheapest wash i have found is equivalent of 8 quid
