Did you just slide, and 'kiss' the wall or summat?? Coz it looks like u got away very lightly!!!

The only damage under neath i suspect, is the bumper bar has probably compressed in slightly on that side, coz the support arms are as flimsy as! (meant to be tho).

Get a new h/lamp, repair + respray bumper, possible replace bumper bar and ur done. No major head aches there!!

The only crack is the bit next to the fog light, I was goin to craigpcg's house (Edinburgh) and bout 5 miles from it it was snowing really heavily, less than 1 mile from his house I approached a set of traffic lights and just touched the brakes and the car went sideways mounted a kerb and bounced off the wall, when I opened the door I relised I just missed a metal railing, the cars coming towards me saw me sliding and stopped then when I hit the wall they just went passed, ignorant wanks.

The snow was really deep and because of the tracks that other cars put in the snow when I braked the front wheels found one track and the back found another causing me to go sideways.
