ir_fuel Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 Am I the only one who doesnt understand anything of this thread anymore? First a scratch on the door, then a 3k repair quote, next half the car needs replacing Quote
AndyC Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 First a scratch on the door, then a 3k repair quote, next half the car needs replacing You're not alone Quote
steve_jones Posted May 14, 2007 Author Posted May 14, 2007 Most of it is removal of bumpers and lights so they can paint it proporley, the only new panel is the door, but it has to be blended to the panels either side Steve Quote
Sarnie Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 Removal of lights and bumpers for a door scratch? Quote
Zzzz... Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 I think in this case a picture will save a 1000 words... Quote
