Advice needed on bumper scratch repair
My wife scratched the bumper of my neighbor's new Toyota Sienna. There
are a few scratches in an area roughly 6 inches long and 1 inch wide. The black layer underneath the paint is showing. No dent or anything. Only a scratch. I called up a body shop (recommended by the dealer) and they quoted me $600. Any suggestions on how to get this done for less. I need to get the job professionally done so do-it-yourself kits are not an option. Thanks. |

Well, you have a problem.....
Those things are super expensive to repair properly. You can try local paint shops, but.... Sometimes it is cheaper to replace the plastic skin rather than repair it. A wrecker might even have the right color...
