ouch, that looks nasty, looking at the pics its a new rear floor repair panel and a lower rear panel ( which is a bugger cos i got rid of mine last week  and you would have been welcome to it ) oh and a boot lid. personally I'd fix it your self as its almost certain the insurers will write it off  |

 Just logged in and my eyes are still trying to focus. Glad to hear you're ok Jules. The damage looks repairable with a bit of luck. Did the subframe manage to escape any damage.??
