Minor Bumper Repair

Last week our ""Minor" Bumper Repair" featured a scary collision where damage was much worse than expected. This week's bumper is more common. And it really is a minor bumper repair. We fixed a dent and repainted the bumper with factory matched paint. It didn't cost much or take much time. Absolutely no hidden surprises.

Fixing the Work of Scam Artists

Don't be embarrassed if this happened to you. Once a week we see a car that has been "fixed" by a scam artist. He approachs people and offers to repair damage on the spot for a reasonable price. He may hammer, apply fillers and paint. When he's done he explains that you just need to let things dry then everything will be perfect. He may even offer to come back to finish the job. You won't see him again and you will have no way to contact him. These guys create more damage than they started with. Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2004 Chevrolet Malibu that has been attacked by one of these scam artists. As you can see in the photos below, he didn't fix anything but he made the car uglier and in need of more repairs.

Toyota Avalon Accident Damage

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2012 Toyota Avalon with some ugly collision damage. The bumper was torn off. The headlamp, grill, wheel, fender and door were all damaged and a foglamp and some internal parts were simply gone. The customer's insurance company paid for repairs. This car had a 3-stage pearl white paint which is beautiful but also notoriously difficult to match. Can you tell the car had this much repair work done in the after photos?

Yeeowh! Bumper Torn Off Honda Odyssey

A car sheared off  the front end this Honda Odyssey and left shreds of metal embedded in the minivan. The damage looks serious but the minivan driver stopped quickly and avoided doing significant damage to her car. She and her husband bought a bumper cover themselves and asked us to paint and install it. The cost was less than her deductible.

Honda Civic Collision Repair

A pick-up truck backed up into this poor Honda Civic in a company parking lot. The owner of the pick-up was very nice, notified the owner about the accident and made sure the damage got repaired properly. We replaced the bumper cover, grill and several brackets.
