Possible LCM problem? (Fixed)
That's a real shame :( Id think there is a fair bit of damage behind the plastic bumper and it will be a writeoff :( It’s going in for an evaluation on Thursday with the body shop so I’ll know what’s happening then. When you look down behind the bumper everything looks straight & the bumper is still ...

Well let’s just say his 2020 Luton van needs a lot more than paint lol. That badly damaged that the passenger door wouldn’t open more than 6 inches.
