Bumper kiss

[fiestaz]

Well last thursday, had my car in the driveway. my mate who clearly drives to quickly, drove up the driveway and continued straight into the back of my fiesta.... not impressed....

there is now a long and continually growing crack in the paint, as well as the bumper that has bowed up (spelling??), and is out of line in places.

i have been on the hunt for quotes gotten 5 so far. 1 place spent more time looking over the rest of the car rather than the actual bumper without saying a word, another took the time to talk to me, saying what would get done, another 2 looked at it for a moment and made a judgement, and another had a horrible B****y receptionist and a guy who again hardly looked at it.

One thing that kept coming up is that it has been previously repaired, which is why its cracked the paint/filler thats on the bumper, and also that there could be damage behind the bumper.

So majority of that is fine, but im getting confused by the fact, theres a mixture of judgement on whether to replace or repair it. all i know is that i want to to be back how it was, which was pretty much perfect, but i have no idea whats best to do. so im seeking some opinions on the situation.

i will post photos up asap to give an of the damage.
your help is appreciated
