Toyota Prius Bumper & Tailgate Repair

Rear bumper and tailgate damage before repairs at Almost Everything Auto Body.

We fixed a dent in the tailgate, replaced the bumper and repaired the rear body on this 2013 Toyota Prius. A tricky element is the 3-stage pearl white paint. 3-stage paints achieve special shimmer and highlight effects by stacking translucent color layers on top of each other. Minor variations in color or thickness of a layer can result in poor color match. For this reason all good body shops will tell you that color matching on a 3-stage paint is difficult or impossible and that blending (or fading) paint onto the adjacent panels is required for the repair to look less noticeable. Even with blending, there can be differences between paint applied to plastic vs. metal. So most insurance companies will not cover blending for bumpers and you may notice that the bumper color does not exactly match the rest of the car.

Just a Bumper!

Many customers come to us without insurance and wanting to keep costs to a minimum. In this case, a man bought a bumper himself but needed a shop to paint it for him. We understand and are happy to help in situations like this. All we did was paint his bumper with factory-matched paint. He plans to install it himself.
