  • THIS VIDEO IS FOR YOU!!
    if you are considering doing some of your own diy accident repair work on a Volkswagen Polo, or any other car for that matter.
    in this video I repair accident damage caused to the front of a Volkswagen Polo Vivo.
    It's all straight forward DIY part swopping accept for the silver paint that is always a bit more difficult to paint match than most other paints (for me at least).
    List of parts I had to get for this repair:
    Bonnet
    Bumper
    Centre upper grill
    Lower bumper grill (three pieces)
    Headlight (left and right)
    Badge
    Bumper stiffener
    Radiator cradle
    Radiator
    Ac condenser
    Fan assembly complete
    Paint primer
    Paint base (silver)
    Paint clear coat
    Paint consumables (thinners, hardener, sand paper, etc)
    Antifreeze
    Aircon regas
  • Auta a dopravní prostředky

    I have the exact same damage except I drove into a moerse rock when I made a 3 point turn 😑 - everything is the same except my radiator fins were less bent and no bonnet damage. The body work is costing me an arm and a leg.
