Looked worse that it was.
I managed to bend it back:

after the 3rd party finally admited liabilty i wait for the engineer/valuater to
call - he just did.
Understandably its written off i was expceting that - but they have the nerve to try and tell me its CAT B - meaning no buy back as salvage option.
Coupled to that complete boolacks, is the additional pile of steaming manure of a price valuation - ?150.. ?150!!!!!! WTF?? thats a f-ing glasses guide trade in price - not a book value for replacement.
and this is MY insurers estimates. :confused:
I asked if i could get it independently inspected to ensure at Cat B was a fair assesment (as it clealrly isnt accurate) but they say their decision is final and want to arrange to collect it!
TOSS BAGS.
wish id kept the sri shell now - id have swapped over the identitys.
any advice?
