Haha.. surprises are the best! I do rather like long nails, I jokingly said to Adam.. At least I'm not one of those typical girls who breaks a nail doing stuff as I have strong nails.

Spoke to soon :(

I'll update this bit for you :p...

Not long ago Jo had a little bump into the back of another car. No major issue but it did push the front end in a little. So I had the pleasure of fixing it being "the one with the bodywork knowledge" (this is also a good example of being a good partner, even if she makes me out to be shit :p). The main sign was that the driver's light was pointing inward like a lazy eye. Made little SOB look a little challenged!

When you popped the bonnet a sure sign was the radiator being pushed back against the battery. Luckily not damaged though :)

Also this made it pretty obvious...

I spent a good hour or two having stripped everything out the way, realigning the light and pulling brackets straight, making everything fit properly again... Luckily it only really bent the removable slam panel, bar that goes from top to bottom, bent the headlight bracket and twisted the top slam panel.

Nice and straight :)

And eventually after putting it all back together no one would be any the wiser :)

Now we're just after an ep80 slam panel if anyone is aware of any that are available? Turns out the EP82 ones don't fit and it's harder to get parts for an ep80 than it is the 82 lol! Who would have thought that would happen 20 years ago.
