My puma has had a 'small' bump which has sqashed a section of the slam panel.
A large hammer and several annoyed neighbours later its less squashed on the top and
bottom but still squashed inwards about 4/5 mm.
the bonnet overshoots the light a little as the bumper seems to push the whole light area inwards I've used washers to force the bumper to sit closer to normal but the length of the bolt (and the fact its set/welded into the bumper with heat) means theres a maximum amount of travel to be gained with washers
its okay for now, but...
I can find the slam panel for sale but its not complete, It only seems to be the part that has the light mountings , which is annoying as this portion is undamaged.
It is the part that has the two mountings on for the bumper which is squashed... what is the box section that runs along its length actually called?
