We've just had a similar problem though didn't need a new bumper.......... Looks like someone has bumped up against our rear bumper of the IS and the clips which hold the bumper / styling kit onto the bodywork under the wheel-arch had broken.

Anyhow we took it into Lexus Sheffield and they had a look. They managed to rebolt the bumper on the nearside but had to fit a new dust insert in the off-side wheelarch and reconnected the bumper. charged 25 quid i think for the part and fitting.

Cheers

Dave.

The kind of people who do this sort of hit and run activity really need their ****s kicking very hard.

I was in York the other day, some bloke reversing bashed right into a parked car, broke the rear clusters and scraped the bumper of some guy's car and just drove away. I got his number and took the liberty of putting the details on the damaged car's windscreen so the owner could follow up.

Hit and runners, jealous car vandals etc. really make me seethe with fury. AND it is people like this who make our own insurance premiums rocket.

The Don, you have my sympathy. If you ever find the prat responsible, give him a good belting from me also.

Rant over... :yack:

you get lot of these people. my old mazda 323f front bumper got slightly scuffed as some cowboy builder in a renault kango work van left it stationery & rolled back as i was behind him, i beeped but still didnt stop & accused me of going into him even tho my foot was on the brake. of course i didnt pay for something he done.

The people who do this are scum - Cheeky - that's a quality thing you did there.

Hope you get things sorted soon fella.
