Rear bumper scrape


Recommended Posts

Gutted I did thus yesterday on the school run. Wasn't paying attention and had my rear sensor on short to beep so was all of a sudden it went to a solid beeeep.

Happened on reversing to a wall that has a step out section to the right side of the car I clipped!!

How maddening.  Like my front skirt kerb scrapes.  End up parking two feet away from everything around and especially both sides when supermarket parking.  Someone is bound to have a suggestion as to how to mend the damage.  Hope so, as I have a noticeable scratch on the boot lid which needs repair.

This job is going to cost me £60.00 on my LS400 at my local body shop.

I would find a decent smart repairer locally unless you fancy a drive to Derbyshire.

That's not bad at all. Mine is going to need some filling too and been quoted £175 [emoji16]

What is a long beep and a short beep.?  My alarm sounds when any one/thing gets within 3 feet of front or back.  If it is adjustable, how is this done ?

It's under the settings somewhere but I keep it on long - so yes 3 ft. 

Id prefer a long beep than hitting it somewhere. Long beep seems to pick up kerbs up front too

the repair looks good, i am sure whatever it cost to repair it will always be a reminder to be careful whilst reversing.

Absolutely and the guy who did the job said it was nearly in need of a new bumper so feel I got off likely with £180 bill!
