Minor ding to front bumper while parked. How to get it checked.
Very annoyingly, someone I know reversed into my S8 (already parked) this evening.
Pretty low speed but the paint is marked and it looks like the bumper is pushed back a few mm on the nearside.
It was a modern Range Rover and with cameras, sensors etc. I haven't a clue how they did it, nor have they! I even saw them do it! 
Anyway there'll be no arguments over getting it fixed and paying, but I obviously want it done properly as it's just back from MJ and Nicola!
So, first question, do we know anyone in my part of the world (South Bucks) who could give it the once over to check if there's anything other than cosmetic damage?
And secondly, anywhere we trust to realign, repaint and ceramic coat the bumper properly? It will probably be heading back to MJ at some stage (next year?) for a few minor jobs that couldn't be fitted in this summer so might have to wait until then if there's no-one near me.
