Look beyond the surface scrape

Some bumper damage is limited to the finish; other damage involves cracks, mounting points or components behind the cover. The right approach depends on the material, condition and vehicle. We inspect the damaged area before discussing whether a repair or replacement is appropriate.

Preparation matters to the finish

Refinishing involves more than applying color to a damaged spot. The repair plan considers the condition of the surface, preparation, the existing finish and the area that needs refinishing. We explain the proposed work so you know what is included in the estimate.

Scraped or scuffed bumpers

We assess the cover and its condition, including whether damage extends beyond the painted surface.

Panel and paint damage

Discuss scratches, chipped or damaged finishes and accident-related paint work with our team.

Repair or replacement

The extent and location of damage, material and vehicle requirements help determine the appropriate option.

Show us the damage in good light

For a photo estimate, include a wide view of the affected side, a view of the whole bumper or panel and close-ups of the damage. Reflections and shadows can hide scratches, so clear daylight photos are useful. We may still need to inspect the vehicle in person to confirm the scope of work.

Bumper & Paint Repair questions

Can every damaged bumper be repaired?

No. Some damage may be repairable, while cracks, mounting damage or the condition of the part can make replacement appropriate. An inspection is needed to discuss the options for your vehicle.

Can you give an exact paint repair price from a photo?

Photos help start the estimate, but finish condition and damage that is not visible in an image may affect the work required. We explain when an in-person assessment is needed.

Is paintless dent repair an option instead?

It may be an option for certain minor dents when the original paint is intact. If the finish is damaged or the dent is unsuitable, conventional repair and refinishing may be needed.
