Lucky you werent standing in front of the car while you pushed the remote.But seriously
why dont you just go to auto1 ,repco etc and get a fiberglass repair kit its not that hard to fix it yourself and with the paint you can get it colour matched into a spray can which i think auto 1 can do.

give it a go, worst case scenario you'll do a dodgy job but leave it on until you can buy another front bar....no harm in that
you never know, might turn out pretty decent and you'll learn a thing or two along the way

Hahaha just take your whole bottom lip off like me. haha. but yea i just bought a whole new veilside front bar good find actually. but i got quoted 150 to fix mine as well, just fix it man.

yeah, my mate said 150 to fix it, an i prob ask him 2 fix my rear wing too, coz it has a crack on the side, so all up 250, o well, guess i dont need to worry about the headache. thanks all though

i really want a new bar, but all up with paint etc etc, like 800 all up T.T unless someone wants to sell me a cheaper bar or swap with the VS one lol
