Incredible isn't it!
I was appalled when I took it off, that's a genuine Peugeot item also! I was seriously glad for the OEM wishbones as I reckon a motorfactor part and it'd have just ripped the wishbone clean off the car.
Honestly, the bang when I hit the kerb was loud enough for me not to even realise the passenger side airbag had gone off... Until I heard my mate swearing his head off as it'd seriously burnt the entire way up his arm, massive pink and blue burn up under his tshirt, still has the scar today AFAIK.
For the record, it wasn't just a case of me randomly hitting the kerb, the gap was so tight that I clipped the wing mirror on the bus and hit the kerb with railings on the central reservation, it was that tight!
I've not really driven it much since, but I would quite like to replace the entire subframe and steering system after that, it did manage to be tracked, but I'll bet it's still out of alignment at the extremities.
