Default bumper being repaired today

Dropped the car off last night to have some minor damage fixed and the front plate screws filled. They are also gonna fix a tiny ding on the rear fender. 500 for all. They give a lifetime warranty on all the work and paint, they garrantee the color match to be undetectable.
I will let you all know how it goes. I get her back tonight.

Keeping my fingers crossed. I know that when they saw my car and saw that it is a 06 w/5000 miles on it it prestine condition that I was not going to be a happy camper if it wasn't done right! So I hope.

WELL!! The jury is in picked uo my car last night at bumperdoc here in San Diego.
NICE JOB!! The reapir is seamless!! In addintion to the damage I caused hitting the bumper in my garage I also had them fill in the holes from the front plate screws and rub damage from the plate frame.
Also while they were doing a walk around inspection to note any previous damage I pointed out a very very minor ding at the rear fender that he didn't spot till I showed him. He said they can fix that "paintless" !!
for an additional $75.00 so I told them to go ahead.
It is unbelievable what the did in 1 day! the ding GONE the bumper is awesome the only thing I will have to bring her back for is a color polish to get rid of some slight orange peel finish on the clear coat.
I am very satisfied they also give a lifetime warrantee. Total for all $506.13

They used some tools of different sizes to get in ad behind the ding to what the called "massage" the ding out. It looks like it was never there.

nice setup on the car.


How are the 3.73 gears and t-lok, did you notice a big difference in driving?
