Accident. Bumper is filmsy man! :(

Ok..technically it's not an accident, it's just my eyes paste stickers... and i Just didn't see the pillar when I was reversing and this is what happens... But before your eyes drift to the damage, any advise on where to fix this? I think I will just change to the AMG Bodykit and I think the light housing is also damage.. How much is the damage you reckon and any good workshops? Thanks all! :)

Look for a good panel beater to fix it, this will save u alot of mula. Becareful many con workshop will advise u to replace a new bumper but usually they will savage yr stock pce!! As for the rear light sticker with it dark tint film (covering job)!! Good luck!!

I assume you are not claiming from your insurance?

Looks like may have to change the taillights and that is costly.

I have a lobang for a value for money workshop if you want more quotes.

PM me if you are keen to ask around.

Thanks all for the advices and recommendations.

So it means the panel beaters are not necessary since it's PVC.

So now I just go find MBM to fix up a new AMG bodykit (around $4k?) ..and buy the light housing from Mercedes Benz?

Most likely since it can't be repaired.......

Haha.. That thought crossed my mind when I hit the pillar.. I was smiling to myself then.

But then.. now the bros say can try panel beating.. hehe.. so I am going down to Lye Design to see whether can salvage. Lye also says he can order the light housing if I need it.
