  • 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

    Just crashed my polo about two hours ago into a tree and very similar damage, planning on replacing bonnet, bumper, offside headlight and impact bar, I don’t think I have hit the radiator and I am hoping I haven’t bent the the subframe 🤞
