I went into Home Depot the other day and parked near the back of the lot, with many empty spaces around me. I came out in 10-15 minutes and a big *** pickup truck had parked right next to my car. I was lucky, no dings.

I saw someone swipe a car in the same manner as they pulled into a parking spot like a rocket. Complete idiot. Backed out of the spot immediately and relocated to remove all doubt that he was the perp. Ooooo its fun to bust a$$holes like that!!!!!!

Well they got me good with some deep scratches and they also broke off a pretty good piece of my tail light. How long do yall think this will take to get fixed.??????

You want to make sure they have sufficient time for work and drying. If they get this then everything will work out nice. I said 1 week because of other work they might have going on.

your bumper will be sanded and any repair done with urethane filler. your quarter will will be taken down to the metal only in the creases so that a weld puller (point of weld puller temporalily fuses to the sheet metal so the tech can pull out the crease). this will be filled, sanded and primed. they will color coat the repair and fade the color coat to blend (problably to somewhere near the middle of the bumper and midway on the quarter panel. they will clear the entire bumper and quarter. a good shop will do this in three days. make sure the shop is clean and has updated equipment. make sure they use a weldpuller (some shops still drill throught he metal and use screws or a dent puller to pull out metal). make them guarantee colormatch and make sure they have a downdraft booth.
