I reckon the wing would be best replaced and I'm not just saying that because I have one, it looks like a fair amount of labour to get that straight again. When I damaged mine it was damaged outwards from the abs pump and that wing was replaced.

After a similar crease in my front wing I located a good used wing for £250 and repaired the valance myself. local shop sprayed it. At least the fog/main is still intact they are very expensive.

You can insist that they repair it - that's why you insured it.

I bought mine in November 2005 for £4850. March 2006 and a couple of bulls ran into the side of it. Total repair bill was in excess of £4000.

The insurance company paid to have it repaired.
