Angry Bone headed scrape--estimate?

Guys and Girls,

Like a dope I was careless yesterday and in one second really messed up my bumper.
I was pulling into my parking deck next to a concrete pillar, in the past hitting it dead on did nothing. This time it was on the right corner and the car scraped the edge of the pillar and left about 5 deep scratches.sickening on my Zainoed and pampered baby!
To anyone who had scratched up his bumper this way, or had someone scrape the corner, what did it cost? I'll have to "eat" this one I think.

Thanks, QR

Red face Got a solution

I've done it too. Call Dent Wizard at 1-800-336-8626. They will refinish your bumper (hopefully it's not a deep scrape) for under $500. Looks great after they're done.

I don't know where you live but I live in San Francisco and I think they are nationwide and may have a location near you.

Yea I would say if it was just scratches it would be repairable, I know I keep saying this but I would just be careful about the paint matching. How many people talk about mis-matched bumper covers. Choose wisely, may the force be with you LOL
