bmw bodyshop in GTA to fix front bumper

Hi,

Does anyone no any good bmw bodyshop to help paint/fix my front bumper...I was in a hurry for my midterm, and when i parked my car in those front ledge spots, it turns out the ledges were higher than usual and i scraped the bottom of my front bumper, I heard a loud scraping sound, and when i checked, luckly theres was only a few scratches, but one of the scratches is pretty deep..so i was wondering if anyone know any bodyshop where i can paint/fix my bumper, also should i also have them check if anything else was dmg since it was pretty loud.

Really? They fucked up my 350z....I hate them beyond belief. Sorry, I usually dont get into trashing anyone...but what a fuckery those guys ended up being. They used to be good back in the day when I had my RSX...but they went downhill as far as I am concerned.

Sad thing is I knew them really well, for about 5-6 years. They used to do all my work for my RSX, and I used to bring them business all the time from the RSX clubs. But that was when Barry and Tim actually were involved in the work that was being done. By the time I brought in my 350z Roadster, they had a bunch of fools working in the shop that couldn't count to two.

I have never been more pissed off at a group of people in my life. They messed up my car door twice, and ruined my soft top. They were never perfect with paint matching, but Barry always used to tell me thats why the price was dirt cheap lol. When I brought him the 350z I told him I dont care how much it costs, I need it perfectly done because its an expensive car. So much for that - it got butchered. Actually ended up going to an exotic car shop in downtown Toronto to fix all their mistakes. Paid serious $$$

Still burns me today.

Anyhow, sorry for venting.

^^ thanks for info

also, can anyone guess how much it would cost me to fix the bumper, basically there are a few light scratches and a really deep scratch (the width is about 0.1-0.2cm, the paint is gone..I can see black).
