hey bud thats pretty shit... but what goes around comes around, you can try and do it yourself, just sand it back and fill it then take it somewhere to get it sprayed cos you dont wana just do touch up spray it'll stand out alot but you can fix the dent yourself dude...

all the best man

It looks like plastic. Bad luck matey. You can try filler primer and paint.

My favourite with plastic and fibre bumper repairs is plastibond from the hardware store. It's strong, adheres well, and is easy to sand.

so go buy some of this just wack it over the damage sand back and respray?

you could get away with yourself if you've got access to some decent tools.

spraying it is going to be the hard part, if you want it to match you'll need to sand back all of the clear, primer the damaged section, paint and trying to blend with the rest of the paint, then re-clear the whole bar.

you could get away without rubbing back the clear, but the new paint might not match the rest of the bar.
