Thing is it was well wrapped and massive writing saying FRAGILE all over it , so im gutted as the boot was mint.
Anyone got an ideas as to how to fix or is it not worth it.

Cheers
Its a work in progress

best bet.. if you ever have a fragile parcel turn up.. make sure you open it up and check it before you let the driver go.. then the company will have to do something about it.. if the driver has gone.. then you can't prove it.. etc

still bad news mate.. more hassle now!

Negative!

No way it should be costing that much.

Shop around, you will get the price down to £100 per panel max. Especially as it is unattatched.

Ditch the badge and take the opportunity to fill the holes :twisted:

Replace with stickers for £5 from @Ammo 8-)
