Unhappy Self inflicted wound to the front bumper

I am so sad!

When parking this morning, I tapped the guard wire in my garage which is inches away from the wall and dented the plastic front bumper in two places and scratched the paint right next to the passenger side fog light.

I was running late and ...... I am so sad! I don't know if I'm going to buy a new front bumper or a kit ... or have a body shop try to pop the bumps out...

One of the dents is right in the plastic body line of the front bumper ... snif snif. Can't bring myself to take a photo.

Could I get some help pricing this part? while I go apologize to my E70.

im sure if it's not serious a decent body shop will quote you a few hundred bucks to buff it out. maybe to make up to your X give her a good wax job when weather gets warmer.

if its in the dead center of your plastic part of the bumper you can get yourself a euro plate to cover it up... i hit some guy with a hitch, obviously nothing happened to his car, so he let me go and i just bought my self a euro plate and it covered it perfectly. :P

Thank you for feeling my pain. I will upload pics for all to see tonight. The dent is right at the edge of the body line separating the top base and the flat (front face) face where the license plate is (or in my case should be) mounted.

A member here gave me the below information when my 2 month old X5 got in an accident.
Go to: RealOEM.com Part Category Selection to get the part numbers.

And enter the part numbers onto ECS Tuning ::OEM / Performance Parts for Volkswagen :: FrontPage to get the prices.

Its very painful when it gets damaged.
