Only had my beautiful IPS X220 a week and it went flying on to a wooden floor this morning. I'm absolutely gutted and feel so silly.

Resulting in a chip on the left of the chassis on the bottom part. The piece that came out is distorted. Does anyone have any idea how much Lenovo tend to charge for chassis parts? I have contacted Lenovo UK and waiting for an answer but any tips or shared experiences would be great. I do not believe the X220 is out long enough to find spare parts on eBay.

This may help you out if you plan to do it yourself.

if you are adept at fixing this issue yourself, then you can order the parts from the IBM parts, this will save you at least 200, as Lenovo depot would charge a quote + handling (for the courier) fees.
