Cupra 2016 rear bumper

Anyone got an idea of price for a 2016 rear bumper?

I've looked on a couple of Seat parts sites and they have the black just but haven't been able to find a bumper.

The missus has reversed into a post at the weekend and done a bit of damage. The black insert has a slight kink in it and a bit of damage to the bumper, just weighing up options and seeing how much quotes come back at.

The grey plastic trim parts are usually fairly cheap.

The bumper cover could probably be smart repaired - just depends upon what damage is lurking beneath deformed area where the bumper cover attaches to the body.

@perryqhill; as @black_sheep has said, it is probably repairable, which should be cheaper than replacing the bumper - assuming no hidden damage behind the bumper cover.

I suffered similar damage to a front bumper when I owned a mk6 Golf GTD - small dent and crack in the plastic bumper. I found a local independent company that did plastic welding as well as normal bodywork repairs. They had a very good reputation and did much of the pre-sale cosmetic body repair and interior trim repair work in my part of the UK for many of the franchised dealerships of the main car brands.

They repaired and repainted the damaged area of my bumper. The repair quality was excellent - I’m very OCD about my car, and I couldn’t see the repaired area - paint finish and colour match was top notch. The repair wasn’t expensive either; at the time it cost £75, although that was back in 2013, so it’d cost a bit more than that now.

Think I can get the central black bit off Seat direct for about 53 plus p+p.

Yeah it's fixable I guess I've just had several shoddy repair jobs done in the past, one through insurance, when they were supposed to replace a bumper with a crease in and instead tried to fix it and the repair lasted a few months before giving up. Finding a capable repair shop I trust is a bigger issue I guess.
