Scuffed bumper

[brandonbillingham]

Hello

To cut a long story short in a car park today I parked in the end space next to the wall, the space was huge so it seemed ideal at the time. Come back an hour later and some corsa decided my space was also there's and parked half their car in mine and a giant transit parked behind me! Bugger...

On the 4th escape attempt I did this with the wall

After some swearing and kicking of myself I got out on the 5th attempt!

I want to try and get this fixed for as little as possible so any tips will be appreciated. The scuff is rough to the touch just to add.

When you post from a computer at the top of the window hit the paper clip icon and it'll let you select the image to upload

Ah okay I'll have to do this again tonight. Strange you can't see it's only hosted on imgur

Yes I think there is an upload issue at the moment that being looked at.

I can't view externally hosted images due to fire wall reasons which is a pain. :bang:

Pictures are clearly vissuable...!
A decent dent/spot repair business can solve this for about 99% for a small amount of money.

Not on my computer they're not! All depends upon the levels of net access you have etc.

EDIT: Uploading to forum has now been sorted apparently if you want to try again OP.

He doesn't need to upload any pictures again, they are there already...!!

Not on the forum they're not, and not visible to all because of that

Its their choice, it'd be advisable to upload for all to see if they want the opinion of others that can only see forum hosted pics

EDIT: managed to find the web link thats blocked for me, and rehost on the forum for the OP

Now I can see it, OP, as has been mentioned above, can be repaired, probably looking at about £120-£300 depending upon location, company and quality of work undertaken

Thanks for reposting only just got back to my laptop.

Glad to hear people are quoting the same price range I've managed to get quotes for so far. Two companies I've contacted have come in around £100.

Hopefully I'll get it booked in within the next month and get it sorted... and stay away from any walls going forward!

I did the same to mine earlier this year, i used 2000 then 2500 grit wet to just buff it out and then i used g3 cutting compound on a buffer and just buffed the whole side of the bumper and with a little wax came out as new
