ABOUT BUMPER DAMAGE

The part of your car that takes the knocks

Your bumpers are built to take the small bumps of everyday driving, which is why they pick up more damage than any other panel. Most modern bumpers are made from flexible plastic, painted in the same colour as the rest of the car.

Common damage includes scuffs from kerbs and car-park pillars, scrapes that go through the paint to the plastic, cracked corners, and clips that have pulled loose. In most cases the bumper can be repaired rather than replaced.

We repair the damaged area, prime it, paint it to your car’s colour code and blend it in, so you can’t see where it was.

A half bumper is usually done in 4–5 hours, so you can drop it off in the morning and collect it the same day. Bigger bumper jobs can occasionally take a second day. We’ll confirm the time with your quote.

Yes, we repair cracked and split bumpers. Send photos and we’ll tell you straight.
