Someone's scraped my Edition 30.......

(1/8) > >>

galaxie500:
Just come back from a job and found my Edition 30's driver's side rear bumper scraped - down to plastic on the top part and similarly underneath with a big smear of red paint right across the corner.  The witless oaf has misjudged his/her parking manoeuvre and surprise, surprise, left no note.

Anyone have a recommendation for a good body shop in or around SW London they've used and trust, will remove the bumper correctly, paint it beautifully and reassemble the whole shebang for a good price?  I'm tempted to have the middle of the lower bumper painted black as its in the body shop.....

Guys??

My god there are some w@nkers around!!

I feel your pain and I hope you can get it sorted  :happy2:

Frenzy:
sorry to hear that bud. Parking standards in London are terrible. I'm on the lookout myself for a good bodyshop, anywhere in London or nearby areas will do for me as i'm willing to travel for a good standard of work.

ATB  :happy2:

Thanks for your commiserations Maxload & Frenzy!

I've a recommendation of a painter in Isleworth, West London and also a company in West Hampstead that's been established for many years.  One would hope the long established firm is still in business because their work is good; I know they do higher end marques and the car's I've seen in their yard are always properly stripped and prepped rather than crudely masked with newspaper as I'm sure we've all seen in backstreet garage's up and down the land!

I'll report back.

Here are a few shots of the damage shot with my iPhone. Apologies for the quality.

What would a rough estimate be for bumper removal, prep and painting and reassembly?

Thanks Gents.
