anyone ever had any experience with those people that claim to fix minor flaws on bumpers? They usually come to you... I don't know how it's done, but I heard from someone at the gym saying that his neighbor was having her car worked on when he was leaving the house to run an errand, and when he got back he said that the bumper looked GREAT! I'm just wondering because I bought those bumper plugs from GJBenn85 and when I took my plate holder off, there's a little of indentation (lines) where the plate holder was... it doesn't look too good.
 
Find me someone who can do it & give me their number. Everyone around me says I need fill em in. That means paint :eek:
 
Some moron doing 3 point turns in a parking lot. My Father in Law, when we got back to his house, mentioned to me that he saw someone doing that (I was busy watching my kids). At first sight, the corner spot I picked was excellent. People just do stupid shit out there.
 
yeah, when I was moving home back in March, I must have backed it into something (passenger rear corner), I didn't even notice it until later... I have no idea where I did it. I guess it could've been someone hitting me, but I doubt it... I was doing so much moving I must have been in a hurry... it's not too bad in this photo below, you can't even tell...

I doubt the paintless dent removal guys can do it for the bumper. It is not steel or aluminum and even then aluminum would be very difficult. I think you guys will need a body shop.

no, I'm not talking about the paintless dent removal guys... I'm talking about the ones who claim to be "bumper doctors". That's all they do... bumpers. I think it involves airbrushing... and like I said a guy at the gym said the outcome was great...
 
so they fill it afterall. Cost?
only thing I'd worry about it colormatch & overspray. Not sure if it's worth the trouble for my small damage. May just wait till it gets a bigger boo boo . . which may be next week, . . or never
 
wow, I can't belive they use that video to promote there service... what a gypsy job:embarrassed: that's horrible. first of all they used body filler on a bumper, that's BS... then, they really did a sloppy repair, didn't remove the bumper to properly fix that quarter... the bumper repair still looks like crap around the molding which also shoulda been removed, the lump is visable on the qtr... that's an abortion:eek:

around here you can find gypsy's doing this kinda stuff outside strauss or other auto parts type stores... they are total butchers... in the end you get what you pay for though but please don't do this to an fx:frown:
