Well I took a closer look yesterday - the bumper was deformed quite a way in & then obviously popped out again.
The van hit so hard his bumper reached the metal boot skin which is scratched & deformed, so that also needs replacing.
The metal bar behind / underneath the bumper looks intact, if a little scratched from the plastic hitting it. Other panels look ok, and exhaust unaffected.
It is however going in for a full inspection next week through the insurance co, but expect them to say its cosmetic only.
Also, I'm not one to take advantage of these injury claims, and when it was offered by the insurance company I said I was fine, just shaken. However as I'm training for a charity cycle event at the mo, on a 30 mile route yesterday morning my neck & right shoulder were absolutely killing about 5 miles in & had to come back early - my g/f reckons it is something related to the crash so might see the doc..
