WoREoD Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Parked in the driveway at my ladyfriend's house and, lo and behold, her mother arrives and reverse into my front bumper! (I wont bore you with the conversation that followed - diplomacy is my middle name!). Apart from a mark on the bumper which I have polished out there is a slight deformation in its overall shape so that round the headlight/front wheel arch area its moved around 3mm. This all happened on Wednesday, and I pushed on various places to see how much movement there was, and now it appears the mis-alignment has decreased. So my question is... Will these bumpers re-form to their original shape over time, or is there some process that might help (e.g. the hairdryer trick), or am I stuck with a mis-alignment that probably only me will notice (or all of you now!)?
