Bumper Repair??

Blacktemplar · 06-26-2017, 07:03 AM

Daughter's 120i has a small dent/crease on the rear bumper where she reversed into a low wall at low speed. The car is up for sale, but one or two potential buyers have expressed concern about the ding.

Is it something that's reasonably straightforward to repair, and if so, can anyone recommend a repairer in the Glasgow/Central Belt area that could help? It would be handy to get an idea of cost as well.

Thanks

Not the best of pictures, but gives an idea of the scale of the ding...

That is creased so could be a new bumper required although I'm no expert!!

Just to give you an idea of cost my son had an bmw e46 rear bumper repaired and completely sprayed for £150 and it was a lot worse than your daughters one

Cheers, will try them as well - I've contacted a local firm and sent them more close-up pics to see what they say.
