Stilo Abarth-Hit & Run!

[Robb C]

Hi all,

This is my first post on this forum. I bought a 2002 Stilo Abarth just over 2 months ago. Yesterday, I was the sorry victim of a Hit and Run to my beloved car whilst leaving in a Park and Ride carpark. It looks to me like someone reversed in to it, and I think with a tow bar as there is quite a big dent in a small area (under the number plate). The front bumber is cracked, it's only cosmetic damage but I do want to get it sorted. I've attached some pictures so you can see the damage. If I need to get a new bumper is it different to a normal Stilo bumper? If so are they hard to get hold of? Or do you think this is fixable?! (I don't have a clue!)

Cheers, Rob

Is there any CCTV imaging being done on the car-park so you might trace the culprit? Its worth asking the site owners.

For parts try Shopforparts or Chris@Souls.

I've already tried and they were pretty unhelpful about it and said there wasn't any CCTV and just pointed me to the 'vehicles are left at owner's risk' sign!!

What :tosser:

Only thing to look out for is that 5-door and 3-door Stilo bumpers (front or rear) are different.

Does anyone know if the Abarth have a different front bumper to other Stilo models?
Thanks

No, they are the same. Just the MW, 5dr, 3dr and Schumacher edition are different. Ebay might be your answer

Wear all black and take a hammer at night to their 'vehicles are left at owner's risk' signs. Gits.

Least you know you won't get caught on their CCTV
