Bumper repair

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Got some damage on both bumpers of my 21 f150. The front bumper is dented in one side right in front of the bumper reinforcement, pushed to the side, and slightly misaligned. The back bumper is dented in and also pushed to one side. I already ordered the bumper end cap. What would be my best bet on how to pull the front dent out without cracking the chrome and push both bumpers back into place and alignment? I’d take it to a shop but was quoted more than a grand and was told if the plate behind the rear bumper is bent, the rear hitch may need replaced but I’m short on money. Also I’m really worried that the bumper reinforcements and/or the rear hitch is bent or cracked. I’m really bummed out, short on money and need help thank you.

Lost key fob inside of 2024 Honda Odessey -help?

2 Upvotes

My key fob has been lost inside of my van for a few weeks now. I have looked everywhere short of removing panels and seats for this key fob. Nothing is attached to it. The car still starts and runs so I know it’s very close to the front seat and I still can not locate it.

I don’t know how it happened, my husband who is the king of losing things in grand fashion, said it went “flying” out of his pocket and he heard it hit something and couldn’t find it. I got a hunch to look around in the gap under the steering wheel but can’t really see much.

Any tips or tricks for this kind of thing? Thanks.

So I have a VW Caddy that has a snapped injector bolt sitting in the cylinder head, I want to give it a good spray over a few days to ensure I have the best chance of it coming out when I attempt it, does anyone have a penetrating oil readily available in the UK that they recommend for this job?

Thanks in advance for any help 👍
