Need recommended repairer in Sydney

greyd · 02-24-2013, 01:53 AM

Hi All

Had some a$$hole back inot my front bumper a few days ago, of course they left no note and i didn't see it happen.

Looks like a towbar from the height and size of the damage. Its has not split the plastic, so I wondering if it can be repaired without a new bumper, and can anyone recommend a repair shop in sydney (I'm near Hurstville) who will do a proper job on it?

Thanks

Sorry to hear that, I'd recommend O'Brien at Caringbah, about 10-15mins drive from Hurstville. They are recommended BMW approved repairer. Ask for Tim!

I dont think they can get that out of plastic... not 100% sure though

mate shouldn't cost an arm and a leg i got my car backed into by a tow bar and did the same sort of damage but mine was the stem in between the front grills and was 10x worse!! cost me $160 for them to bog the plastic and do a full bumper repaint and it looks like new you couldn't tell at all!! btw i used a mob called superfinish in qld pretty sure you guys have them down there

Sorry to see that. Maybe the Touch Up repair guys could patch it up for a cheap price. Google them.

Lee's Smash repairs did an excellent job of repainting my old 996T, and I have a bit of experience in restoring cars and their work was excellent.
