		Yea but I am guessing the plan was to gently pull it onto the tray and not fall on the other parts of the car.

		Nah bumper and grill is absolutely fine surprisingly. Sam just said "watch this" so i thought it would be best to get the camera out and film it lol. There is no damage at all Matt except where sam jacked it on the sump and the jack slipped and hit the crossmember and bent it. Dont worry though. Its dead straight now though

		Half the shards are in my arms and hands, so you can't have them. I did at one point have my hand inside your engine, through the side of the block. I wanted to get the big end out    
oh and you'll need degreaser for the paint...
