This won’t help you I know, but I took my eye off the ball recently when reversing in our drive enroute to Ireland for three weeks. I hit a wall when I was distracted by a neighbour waving goodbye!!
Fortunately we had a galvanised bumper (with a stainless steel cover) fitted just after we had bought our Broadway. It took the full force of the impact but on examining it, there were just a few scratches to the stainless part and thank goodness no damage to the grp. It was supplied and fitted by Armitage, at Ferrybridge in Yorkshire. Also it give you peace of mind with a small protection against rear shunts.

Hope you get it sorted soon so you can continue your adventures.

I would have thought that an insurance job via A/S would be the only real option on a 2016 van.

There may be speculation about who made the panels (on older vans it's likely to have been Cheltenham if made in GRP) but that's often not useful to know for current models, as whoever made it probably has an agreement only to sell to A/S (because they probably own the design) and not to the general public.

Sorry to hear that.
we were shunted earlier this year waiting to pull out of a sideroad.  22 year old driver of the car said "I thought you had gone". My immediate reaction was to take her to Specsavers!
Anyway, our local motorhome service business put us on to a brilliant GRP repairist, so that's a possibility avenue for you, ( except that we live a long way south of you!).
Ours is a rather older Broadway and they don't stock bumpers for our model at Broadway, Worcs.
Best Wishes.

Worth trying a marine specialist in your area, they work with GRP and can do amazing repairs.
