New brera bonnet

Anybody know how much a new one costs?

The crazy winds we've had have resulted in a tile flying off my roof and landing on my bonnet resulting in a pretty big dent, which I suspect is unrepairable along with some very deep scratches on the side of the car. :cry:

It's probably going to be an insurance job but just wanted to know my options before paying 500 quid excess and increased premiums for a few years.

My immediate thought would be the same as yours i.e "how do I get it repaired?"

My next thought would be "will I be able to source a new bonnet?"

Horribly pessimistic of me but the list of items no longer available or on back order for the Brera is getting longer.

Sorry to hear, knew I was going to see some posts like this today...............make sure you get a genuine bonnet, even go 2nd hand if its an original part. I had a new bonnet on my S years back after a small prang, they used a pattern bonnet and it bubbed round the badge after just a year. Whats up with the roof? marks or a crack, either way its expensive so I guess you will be right on insurance job, unless its just lightly scratched which a specialist glass company may be able to get out for you?? Best of luck getting it all sorted, 'kin weather.

Similar problem with my Spider, but with the boot.
A ridge tile has bounced off it this morning & left a dent :cry:.
Will see what the bodyshop people say...
