Unhappy

Some 4RSE has just clipped the rear bumper of my car.[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Need to get some quotes for re-spray of bumper in the Reading area.

Any suggestions?

Also any idea of approximate price to get bumper removed, re-sprayed and refitted?

Cheers
Peter

If the bumpers not misaligned then it probably wont need to come off.

If you post up or email me a pic I'll give u an idea of what you should expect to pay

No photo's my digital camera is broken!

The bumper is still securely on the car in as far as I can see the normal position. The mountings have taken a bit of a battering tho. The side that was hit moves a fair bit more than the other side when you pull on it. The marking to the paint is quite deep scratches, but no gouges etc. Looks like a rub down and re-spray job only (no filling required). Need to get under the car to check the mountings out properly tho!

Thanks

It sounds like it may need a carrier if we cant straighten it, but I'm sure we could repair the bumper & save you using a bodyshop.

Your welcome to pop over to our workshop LittleKnocks in Harefield, Middx anytime altho I live fairly local to you (in Yateley near Camberley) so we could always meet up & I could advise you better.
